This volume demonstrates the power of art therapy as a tool for
intervening with children from violent homes. Emphasis is given to
the short-term setting where time is at a premium and circumstances
are unpredictable - because within this setting, mental health
practitioners often experience a sense of helplessness in their
work with the youngest victims of abusive families.; In this new
edition, the author describes the intervention process from intake
to termination, highlighting the complex issues involved at various
levels of evaluation and interpretation. The text is augmented with
95 children's drawings, which serve to fill the gap between theory
and reality.; Specific topics include: inherent frustrations for
therapists working in battered women's shelters; what to include in
art evaluation; evaluating child abuse and neglect; group art
intervention in shelters; and art expression as assessment and
therapy with sexually abused children.
