Art Therapy in Practice.

This book describes what happens in art therapy in a variety of contexts, as practised by particular art therapists. The contributors to this volume all work and live in the same geographical region and have evolved their aims as a group. They cover a wide variety of client groups - acute and long-term psychiatric patients, psycho-geriatric patients, mentally handicapped people with psychiatric problems, children with psychological problems, offenders in the community and homeless people. Their employers include the NHS, an education authority, a probation service and voluntary organizations.
