About the Book

This book clarifies the differences between artists or teachers who provide “therapeutic” art activities, psychologists or social workers who request drawings or suggest creative tasks in their work, and those who are trained as art therapists to do a kind of work which is similar, but qualitatively different. Thoroughly updated to reflect the changing landscape of art therapy and the needs of those who use it, Art Therapy: An Introduction, 2nd Edition is a groundbreaking and useful addition to any collection.
