ABSTRACT

The Art of Art Therapy is written primarily to help art therapists define and then refine a way of thinking about their work. This new edition invites the reader to first consider closely the main elements of the discipline embodied in its name: The Art Part and The Therapy Part . The interface helps readers put the two together in an integrated, artistic way, followed by chapters on Applications and Related Service . Included with this edition are downloadable resources containing two hours of chapter-related video content.
