| 概要 |
Arguing that the profession of art therapy has its roots in the studio environment, Catherine Hyland Moon proposes that it is now time to reclaim these roots, and make art once again central to art th...rapy. She suggests that there has been a tendency for art therapy not merely to interact with and be enriched by other perspectives -- psychological, social, anthropological and transpersonal -- but to be subsumed by them. For this reason she makes a clear distinction between using art in one's practice of therapy, and working from an art-based model. Her book presents a model of art therapy where the products and processes of art constitute the core of the model, rather than serving as the impetus for adaptations of other theories of counselling or therapy. It addresses how an arts-based approach can inform in all aspects of the therapist's practice, from the conception of the work and the attempt to understand client needs to interacting with clients and communicating with others about the profession of art therapy. Integrated into the book are many stories about the work of art therapists, art therapy students and those who seek help in art therapy, bringing to life the theory behind studio art therapy. Moon believes that the arts have something unique to offer to the therapeutic process which distinguish the arts therapies from other therapeutic professions. This book is a comprehensive and engaging exploration of the possibilities inherent in the therapeutic use of the arts.続きを見る
