This volume describes art therapy interventions for particularly dysfunctional families and explains the connections between the process of creating art and the curative process in meeting these families' needs. The first chapter examines distressed family systems, and psychotherapy in relation to the uses of art therapy. Subsequent chapters present a crisis intervention model for family art therapy and demonstrate the applications of this model with single-parent families, families affcetd by alcoholism or sexual abuse, and families of political refugees and disaster victims. More than 70 samples of the art produced by these families are reproduced and analyzed.

4.0 out of 5 stars
This is a great book!,
By
This review is from: Art Therapy With Families In Crisis: Overcoming Resistance Through Nonverbal Expression (Hardcover)
i didn't give the book 5 stars because i haven't finished it yet but this book is amazing! sooo insightful - and is written in such an intelligent and eloquent way - i will be reading more from this author. There were some pages that gave me a "whoa" moment. Interesting look into family dynamics. i started reading from the middle out and then started at the begining. I am NOT an art/artsy person so i tend to not recognize the power of art and art therapy but this book really opened my eyes to the way it leaps over the boundaries of communication. especially when communication is difficult for children or "victems".
i highly reccommend this book!!
