Counselling, therapy, and coaching always work with the use of
language. With art-oriented approaches, the limitations of language
can be overcome. One of the most important works of expressive arts
therapy, Loesungskunst is now available in English translation. The
key concept of intermodality- the authors' term for oscillation
between art-analog methods- combines with the primary focus on
resources and strong emphasis on solutions to lay the groundwork
for the method that is as vital now as it was originally. The
importance of imagination, artistic and aesthetic experience to
mental wellbeing is showcased, challenging the common focus on the
cognitive and emotional facets of mental health. In-depth case
studies and explanations illuminate the origins and use of the
theoretical frameworks, helping experienced practitioners and
trainees alike to engage with the fundamental methods and concepts
of expressive arts therapy.
What are the basic attitudes, values, and practices that are
essential for effective work with the expressive arts? This book
explores the answer to that question. The authors examine in depth
the concepts of 'presence' - a way of 'being' - and 'process' - an
open and trusting way of working - in the professional helping
relationship and in the making of art. They introduce readers to
the premise of the 'uniqueness of persons' that underpins these
ideas, and look at how to realize them in practice. Diverse
experiences are also shared of using the arts in group and
individual work in a variety of settings, from team building and
education to counseling, psychotherapy and supervision. This book
is a comprehensive, foundational guide for all practitioners who
use the expressive arts as a way of facilitating learning, growth,
healing, and change, including expressive arts therapists and
students, counsellors, coaches, and other helping professionals.
With its clear structure and straight forward style, the book is
appropriate also for beginners in these professional fields.
This collection reflects on the theory and application of
expressive arts today in therapy, education, research and social
and ecological change. Bringing the understanding of expressive
arts into its contemporary theoretical framework, the book reveals
the expansion of the field from its initial focus on therapy alone
into a diverse range of other areas of interest to therapists,
educators, researchers and those interested in working for social
and ecological change. The book also contains a selection of
discursive writing, poetry and visual art, highlighting the
importance of keeping artistic creativity at the heart of the
field. With contributions from pioneering arts therapists, this
will be vital reading for arts therapists and students in the field
today.
Beratung, Therapie, Coaching kommen nicht ohne Sprache aus. Was
ausschliesslich sprachlich vermittelt wird, hat jedoch die Tendenz,
Prozesshaftes, Sinnlich-Vitales und Komplexes zu reduzieren, zu
verallgemeinern und festzuschreiben. Dies trifft auf kenstlerisches
Tun nicht zu - auch wenn es mit einfachsten Mitteln ausgeebt
wird.Das Autorenduo Herbert Eberhart und Paolo Knill hat eber
Jahrzehnte in Praxis und Ausbildung Erfahrungen mit dem
Ineinandergreifen von Sprache und kenstlerischem Tun gesammelt.
Entstanden ist ein Arbeitsansatz auf systemtheoretischer Grundlage,
der kenstlerisches Tun als Dezentrierung vom Belastenden und
Defizitaren verbindet mit einer ressourcenorientierten Sprache und
Haltung. Damit wird der Erkenntnis Rechnung getragen, dass
produktive Neuausrichtung ein Zurecktreten und Loslassen
voraussetzt.Detaillierte Praxisbeispiele zeigen die Vielfalt
konkreter Vorgehensweisen in verschiedenen Settings. Damit
verbunden ist eine theoretische Aufarbeitung des Einsatzes von
Sprache, Kunst und Spiel sowie die Darstellung der
erkenntnistheoretischen und methodologischen Wurzeln. Es werden die
Grenzen der Anwendbarkeit diskutiert wie auch die Frage der
Vermittlung der notwendigen professionellen Kompetenzen."Damit ist
das Buch gleichermassen fer Lehrende wie Lernende und fer
Theoretiker wie fer Praktiker eine wertvolle Quelle zur weiteren
Entwicklung und deren Reflexion" (Jergen Kriz).
