Career change advice

I'm a qualified teacher just left my previous job due to wanting to look after my mental health, now I'm looking for a part-time job and looking to apply and do my master's in art therapy. Any suggestions on what best to look for and where to look to do something more creative and wellbeing centred. Due to the way I was treated in my previous job I don't particularly want to teach and just need advice on this career change I'm making.
