Art therapy was not appropriate for this course.
The text provides useful insight regarding the design of art therapy interventions with diverse client groups. It is a highly recommended book for academics, practitioners and clinicians
A little too specialist for the art programmes we offer.
This book has lots of nice ideas and illustrations and we found that the techniques and methods discussed are easily transferable and inspire you to be creative in your own work.
What a fabulous book on Art therapy, exploring its uses and outcomes for various issues.
I would highly recommend this book for any counsellor and psychotherapist, play therapist, supervisor or student who is ready to expand their creativity and engage in art therapy.
useful for all students because they can consider appraoches that move beyond words alone. Loved the book!
