Newly qualified art therapists often feel daunted by the challenge
of actually being face-to-face with a client and are unsure how to
progress after the first image has been created. In this honest and
encouraging book, Deborah Schroder explains how art can provide
openings into therapeutic relationships and create a safe space for
exploring issues and concerns. Drawing on her own development as an
art therapist and her extensive experience of supervising new
therapists and students, Schroder provides practical advice on
encouraging nervous or reluctant clients, or those unfamiliar with
art therapy, to benefit from artmaking. She argues for a two-way
sharing of art between therapist and client, exploring not only how
specific techniques can be put into practice, but also how they
benefit the therapeutic relationship. Providing guidance on moving
into deeper work, exploring and containing particular emotions, and
bringing the therapeutic relationship to a close, this book is
invaluable to new art therapists at all stages of their
relationships with clients.
