ABSTRACT
This chapter suggests that a suitable structure for parent-child art psychotherapy setting. In this context, the term “setting” refers to the following: the presence of the parents in the therapy room, adjusting the therapy room to the needs and objectives of therapy, adapting the type of art materials best suited for creative work and finally the issue of displaying the artworks from other clients or keeping them confidential. The first involves the fact that fathers in some families in Israel work longer hours than mothers, and are therefore less available for meetings of this kind, specifically in public settings where the therapeutic work is habitually carried out in the morning hours. The therapy room is the space in which the therapy takes place. Most art therapists using the parent-child psychotherapy model emphasized the advantages of having a variety of art materials available in the art therapy room, and stated that any material can be adapted to their work.
