Arts Therapies and The Mental Health of Children and Young People
presents innovative research, theory and practice in the arts
therapies. The different social, cultural and political contexts
and developmental age groups illustrate and underscore the richness
and diversity of contemporary arts therapies' creative response to
the needs of children and young people in contrasting locations.
The book represents an acknowledgement of the high rates of mental
disorders in children and young people and addresses this subject.
In presenting an array of responses from arts therapists working
with children and young people in different contexts and countries,
the book highlights the particular features of distinct art forms,
yet also points to the potential dialogue between disciplines.
Chapters show how the expressive potential and appeal of the arts,
when facilitated within the therapeutic relationship, are crucial
in fostering hope in the future and the capacity for trust in self
and others. This book will be of great interest to arts therapists
as well as academics and postgraduate students in the fields of
arts therapies, social work, psychotherapy, health psychology, and
education.
