Art Therapy has become immensely popular and extremely well-suited to groupwork. "Art Therapy for Groups" is a valuable and practical introduction to both of these fields. It explains the reasons for using theme-based groupwork and provides detailed guidance on how to set up and run a theme-based art therapy group. All aspects of the therapeutical approach are considered-equal opportunities, size of groups, common problems, safety-across a broad range of groups, from residential institutions to community situations. This new edition presents nearly 400 themes and practical exercises to use with groups, set out in sections ranging from personal work to group interactive exercises. Seventy new themes are collected from art therapists' responses, as well as a chapter on recording evaluation and evidence-based practice. Acknowledging a more global outlook, there is an updated international resources section, as well as a more thoughtful consideration of race, culture, diversity and equal opportunity throughout the book. A survey of literature on art therapy groups provides a summary of different models used in art therapy with groups. Illustrated by more new black and white photographs, this book is an essential resource for all people working with art therapy and personal art groups.
