Portrait therapy reverses the traditional roles in art therapy,
utilising Edith Kramer's concept of the art therapist's 'third
hand' to collaboratively design and paint their clients' portraits.
It addresses 'disrupted' self-identity, which is common in serious
illness and characterised by statements like 'I don't know who I am
anymore' and 'I'm not the person I used to be'. This book explores
the theory and practice of portrait therapy, including Kenneth
Wright's theory of 'mirroring and attunement'. Case studies,
accompanied by colour portraits, collages and prose-poems, provide
insight into the intervention and the author highlights the
potential for portrait therapy to be used with other client groups
in the future.
