Description
Art Therapy - The Person-Centred Way is an expanded edition of the first book on person-centred art therapy, featuring numerous exercises and ideas. This approach demonstrates that healing and growth can occur through integrating verbal and non-verbal intelligence. The book chronicles twelve students as they complete a year-long person-centred art therapy course, sharing their experiences with difficulties and successes in becoming person-centred. The process highlights the collective aspect of the person-centred approach, based on self-discovered learning, negotiated decision-making, and self/peer assessment. With its wide range of exercises, illustrations, and refreshing ideas, this book is a valuable resource for those involved in human development, whether in training or practice.
