Abstract

The uniqueness of the collaborative virtual environment (CVE) makes it a perfect medium for delivering art therapy sessions remotely during the global pandemic. This pilot study investigates the feasibility and usability of delivering remote art therapy in a customised CVE. Four young adults as clients and two registered expressive arts therapists participated in the study. The quantitative and qualitative results suggested that the CVE-enabled approach was feasible and the system's usability was high. The approach was well received by both the clients and the therapists. Possible improvements to the CVE were identified and will be addressed in our future work.
