Responding to growing interest in DBT-informed art therapy, this
edited guide focuses specifically on how these interventions can
treat a variety of client groups. Combining the structure and skill
development of DBT with the creativity and non-verbal communication
of art therapy can be a significant advantage in treating patients
who are resistant to talking therapy. This book includes
international contributors who cover work with a wide variety of
populations, such as those with suicidal behaviours, eating
disorders, and personality disorders. Divided in two parts, Part I
focuses purely on DBT-informed art therapy, whilst Part II brings
in multi-modal DBT-informed approaches, such as poetry and
movement, but all with visual art as a component.
In "Barriers to Love," psychotherapist Marina Peralta uses her own
life story to address the question of bisexual identity. Set in
Mexico and California, Marina reveals how early sexual abuse led to
sexual confusion in her adolescence. Jilted by her first boyfriend,
comforted by a lesbian, and controlled by her widowed mother, she
marries an emotionally detached man, and finds love with a woman.
With vivid honesty, she portrays her love affairs with both men and
women, and why the person and not the gender guides her choice of
partner.
