Customer Reviews

Very comprehensive

Excellent textbook on expressive arts therapies, covering quite a range of them. of course, because it covers a whole range, it's not in depth with each but it definitely introduces each element quite well for what it is. It broadened my understanding of expressive therapies.

An excellent book and resource

I use expressive arts with my own clients and found this book to be a very powerful resource. Each expressive arts therapies are explained and there are examples of each modality through different therapist working with patients or clients of their own. Very well-written and organized. I have several expressive arts books and have to say that this book is very good to a beginner who needs understanding of expressive therapies and for advance therapist who may need a reminder or simply need a new idea. This book is informative...and even gives major evaluations and assessments! Everything is defined for clear and complete comprehension. Great for a class!
