A readable and accessible overview which will contribute to a greater understanding of the profession of art therapy and the therapeutic use of art undertaken by registered art therapists" - Carole Pembrooke, Chair of the British Association of Art Therapists.
Art Therapy provides a concise introduction to theory and practice, brought to life through case material and examples of artwork produced during therapy sessions. Written by practicing art therapist Dave Edwards, the book explains key theoretical ideas - such as symbolism, play, transference and interpretation - and shows how these relate to practice.
The book also provides useful information on training and employment as well as guidance on practical issues such as:
} assessing clients
} establishing and maintaining boundaries, and

An extended case study provides an overview of the whole process from beginning to end, tying together issues discussed in earlier chapters.
