ABSTRACT

Kim came to art therapy sessions weekly for eighteen months. When he was feeling strengthened, no longer overwhelmed by his depression, less isolated and setting the foundations for real relationships, it was agreed by both Kim and Gabrielle that he would come on a less regular basis. He was now entering his second year at college. For the next six months he attended on a fortnightly basis which was then renegotiated to a monthly session. This continued until the end of that year when he left college and therapy was terminated.
