Description
Write Yourself: A complete introduction to facilitating creative writing for therapy or personal development, both with individuals and groups. This clear and practical guide is also an essential handbook for those embarking on their own personal writing journeys.
Topics covered include the nature, values and principles of therapeutic creative writing, how to begin, and how to write with specific client groups, such as children, those with mental health or substance misuse problems, and those receiving psychotherapy or counselling. The book also provides detailed instructions for running a writing group or a longer or residential writing programme.
With 175 exercises included, this book will be an invaluable resource for creative arts therapists, professionals working in the caring professions, and for everyone interested in the therapeutic potential of creative writing.
