Product Description

Review

"It is a thought-provoking, eye-opening picture of therapeutic possibilities for a daring, courageous counselor who is willing to be forever vigilant, forever learning, forever present. This book belongs on any counselor's shelf as a resource, packed full of information, insight, and creative ideas to enhance the therapeutic process--even for those counselors who would never dare to explore movement with their clients."
-"The Advocate, July/Aug 1996
"Anyone interested in psychology and creativity must read this book ... the treatment of Sue and Jon, two blind children; Warren, an autistic child; and Sandra, a sexually abused little girl, are just three of the unforgettable cases."
-Dr. Robert W. Siroka, Director, Psychodrama Training Institute, NY
"a compassionate and compelling portrayal of human problems and the methods used to resolve them. The authors ... describe countless creative approaches. All inspire meaningful expression and revelation."
-Dr. Robert Landy, Director of Drama Therapy, NYU

Book Description

In this text, contemporary dance/movement therapy is applied to 16 of today's most challenging clinical problems. Illustrated case studies cover physical and sexual abuse, co-dependency and addiction, issues in ageing, anxiety and depression, multiple or borderline personality disorders, and disturbed and handicapped adolescents, children and infants. It presents an incorporation of dance therapy with visualization methods, dramatic techniques and the visual arts. It should be of particular interest to dance, movement and drama psychotherapy practitioners. Clinical social workers, psychologists, special educators and occupational, activities, recreation and rehabilitation therapists should also find this a useful text. It includes contributors such as Bette Blau, Bonnie Bernstein, Meg Chang, Diane Duggan, Tina Erfer and Judith Pines Fried.
