This book bridges art therapy practice and research by presenting
sensory-based relational art therapy approach (S-BRATA), a
clinically tested framework for working with children with autism
spectrum disorder (ASD) that explicitly addresses sensory
dysfunction and its impact on impaired attachment. The author shows
how art therapy can facilitate attachment while addressing sensory
problems that might underlie impaired attachment shifting the focus
from the behavioral to the emotional development of the child with
autism. The book additionally challenges traditional aspects of art
therapy practice, particularly the focus on the relational aspect
of the intervention and not the art product. Not restrictive or
prescriptive and with the potential to be adapted to other
interventions, S-BRATA provides an explicit framework for doing art
therapy with children on the spectrum that opens the scope of art
therapy practice and encourages flexibility and adaptation.
Clinicians, students, and parents alike will benefit from the
text's clear outline for relational development with individuals on
the spectrum and its emphasis on the importance of the
psycho-emotional health of a child with ASD.
