For those with mobility and communication challenges, arts
therapies can be especially significant and rewarding as a means of
self-expression and engaging with others. This book provides
practical guidance on multimodal and archetypal arts therapy
approaches adapted specifically for a physical disability context.
Practical strategies and interventions are given, alongside case
studies from individual and group arts therapy sessions. The author
acknowledges the challenges of working with clients with physical
disabilities, such as physical assistance in using resources,
subtleties in communication of preferences and the need for extra
members of staff, and gives clear guidance for accessible and
effective sessions. This is essential reading for any arts
therapist wanting a tailored approach to meeting the needs of
people with physical disabilities, with a focus on person-centred
and strengths-based methods. In addition, all frameworks covered
are also adaptable for other client groups.
There is increasing pressure on therapists to provide details of
structured assessments and to report therapy outcomes to funders,
employers and co-workers. This edited volume provides a series of
case studies, with varied client groups, giving arts therapists an
accessible introduction to assessment and outcome measures that can
be easily incorporated into their regular practice. The book
provides demonstrations, within a practice-based evidence
framework, of how measures can be tailored to the individual
client's needs. The case studies show assessment and outcome models
for music therapy, art therapy and dramatherapy used with a range
of client groups including people with intellectual disabilities,
Autism Spectrum Disorders, Multiple Sclerosis and Parkinson's
Disease and those suffering from depression, Post-Traumatic Stress
Disorder or coping with bereavement.
