The detail of clinical process brings alive the significance of the relationship between the art therapist, child and the art forms made. More general topics include: the value of art for the pre-verbal child; the preventative role of art therapy in schools; the development of imagination in 'hard to reach' and dyspraxic children; and the importance of working with the family and professional network in the different settings of health, social services, education and voluntary sector.
