Twenty-four certified art therapists employed by the Ministry of Education participated in semi-structured interviews, which were analyzed using consensual qualitative research principles. The findings suggest that art therapy is perceived as a valuable and culturally adaptable intervention; however, its implementation is shaped by multiple constraints, including limited specialized training, insufficient institutional recognition, fragmented inter-professional coordination, persistent social stigma, and resource limitations. Consequently, therapeutic practice is experienced as essential and continuously negotiated within cultural and educational boundaries. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
