Focusing-oriented Art Therapy: Accessing the Body's Wisdom and Creative Intelligence by Laury Rappaport provides a unique approach to art therapy, integrating renowned psychologist Eugene Gendlin's Focusing with this creative practice. This innovative method helps clients tap into their inner experience, access healing imagery from their body's felt sense, and express themselves through art. The book offers in-depth examples and descriptions of how to adapt Focusing-Oriented Art Therapy to various clinical populations, including individuals and groups with severe psychiatric illness, trauma, anxiety, depression, and more. It also explores applications in private practice, illness and wellness, spirituality, and self-care. With its integration of theory, clinical practice, and guided exercises, this accessible book enhances clinical sensitivity and skill while adding resources for bringing creativity into practice. Suitable for art therapists, Focusing therapists, psychologists, counselors, social workers, and trainers, Focusing-oriented Art Therapy is a valuable resource for anyone looking to expand their knowledge and skills in this innovative approach.
