Images of Art Therapy - Tapa blanda

A collection of essays by experienced art therapists which discuss and develop the theoretical and practical issues central to art therapy. The authors describe how they work through the use of illustrated case material which includes children, adolescents and adults in schools, psychiatric hospitals, therapeutic communities and out-patient clinics. Theoretical considerations include bereavement, play, transference, symbolism and verbal versus non-verbal communication. The text expands on the issues raised in "Art as Therapy" and develops ideas for the theory and practice of art therapy with diverse client groups.
