Description

Healing Trauma with Guided Drawing is a body-focused, trauma-informed art therapy approach that helps clients express and process their emotions through guided drawing. This unique approach, developed by Cornelia Elbrecht, combines physical movement and bilateral scribbles to soothe physical pain, tension, and emotions. The book provides the context and process of guided drawing, including 100 full-color images from client sessions, to help mental health professionals and art therapists facilitate this self-empowering approach. Elbrecht's approach is both body-focused and trauma-informed, making it an ideal tool for clients who have experienced complex traumatic events. By using archetypal shapes and a nonverbal approach, therapists can safely structure the experience and help clients repair their memories of the past. This book offers a comprehensive guide to the thinking behind and process of guided drawing, making it an essential resource for anyone working with trauma and complex emotional issues. With its unique blend of art therapy and somatic experiencing, Healing Trauma with Guided Drawing provides a powerful tool for healing and recovery.
