Description
Dance Movement Psychotherapy with People with Learning Disabilities: Out of the Shadows, into the Light provides an in-depth exploration of this therapeutic approach for individuals with varying levels of need. Contributors from diverse backgrounds share their experiences and insights gained from working with clients across the disabilities spectrum. The book delves into the theory and practice of dance movement psychotherapy, examining its application in psychotherapeutic interventions, dance movement therapies, and theoretical constructs. It also presents case study material, practical guidance for practitioners, and reflections on the impact of this therapy on individuals' wider socio-cultural contexts. This comprehensive resource is geared towards practitioners, students, allied health professionals, service providers, and carers seeking a deeper understanding of dance movement psychotherapy and its role in promoting acceptance of difference and equality in healthcare settings.
