Membership with the OATA is of interest to Art Therapists in practice, Art Therapy trainees and professionals in related fields; all of whom have an interest in maintaining high standards in Art Therapy and in receiving current information related to the field of Art Therapy.

Active membership in the OATA offers the support of a regulating body, strengthens the credibility of our profession, and provides opportunities for networking and growth.  As well, it is projected that by the summer of 2012, the new College of Registered Psychotherapists and Registered Mental Health Therapists regulating the practice of psychotherapy will be opening its doors to registrants. The OATA is actively involved in this regulatory process to protect the interests of its members. Belonging to the OATA is an important first step towards the process of becoming a member of this college.
