Reviews"Finally, a comprehensive and user-friendly art therapy book for clinicians working in the trenches with challenging treatment populations! Cathy Malchiodi and her talented contributors have done an admirable job of providing therapists of all professional disciplines with highly creative art therapy techniques and strategies that can empower clients to liberate themselves from the clutches of their oppressive problems. Best of all, the book invites therapists to step out of the mental trap of 'therapy is serious business,' and think and play 'out of the box' with their clients. This is an outstanding book that will be useful to seasoned professionals as well as graduate students in all of the helping professions."--Matthew D. Selekman, MSW, Evanston, Illinois "This cutting-edge book is clear, comprehensive, and readable. For both seasoned therapists and beginners, it is a 'must' for personal reference. It is also an ideal text for undergraduate- and graduate-level courses in a variety of specialties--not just art therapy but also clinical and counseling psychology, nursing, pre-med, and medicine. Malchiodi has produced the quintessential book on 'everything you always wanted to know about art therapy and were unable to find in one complete volume.'"--Linda Whitney Peterson, PhD, Department of Family and Community Medicine, University of Nevada School of Medicine; author of Children in Distress "This comprehensive text encompasses everything the student and practitioner need or want to know about using art as a form of communication in clinical practice. An essential reference that should be in the offices of all clinicians, the rich applications make this an important resource for play therapists, psychologists, social workers, school counselors, and art therapists who utilize art in a variety of settings with children, adolescents, and adults."--Nancy Boyd Webb, DSW, BCD, RPT-S, School of Social Work, Fordham University, "Finally, a comprehensive and user-friendly art therapy book for clinicians working in the trenches with challenging treatment populations!

Malchiodi, clearly an expert in this field, has skillfully edited this compendium of work, beginning with a historical view of art therapy and continuing with chapters showing clinical applications for both children and adults, further delineated for groups, families, and couples. The book is filled with clinical case examples and shows actual drawings by the presenters' clients. What I especially appreciated was the clarity of the writing, which made it understandable to both students and experienced clinicians. I highly recommentThe Handbook of Art Therapy, not only for skeptics but also for all who ply their skills in this complicated field of mental health."--The Family Journal: Counseling and Therapy for Couples and Families "...an accessible and useful resource for any clinician who wants to know more about art therapy or who wants to better understand clients' artwork in treatment or therapy....The handbook covers the gamut of art therapy applications in a variety of settings. Readers are likely to find several chapters that correspond with their own interests....Handbook of Art Therapyis a welcome addition to the art therapy literature. It is a useful reference and a readable, intersting book to browse."--Psychiatric Services

SynopsisThis essential handbook provides a complete and practical overview of art therapy: how it works, how it can be used, and with whom. Demonstrated are interventions for children, adolescents, and adults facing a variety of clinical problems and life challenges. Case-based chapters from leading practitioners illuminate major theoretical perspectives, including psychoanalytic, cognitive-behavioral, developmental, and other approaches. Also examined is what current research in psychology and neuroscience can tell us about the scientific basis for art therapy. Discussing applications in individual psychotherapy, couple and family treatment, and group work, the Handbook includes over 100 samples of drawings and other artwork. The process of art therapy is illustrated in helping clients manage and cope with such problems as trauma, sexual abuse, developmental and learning disabilities, drug and alcohol misuse, serious mental illness, and medical illness. Appendices include descriptions of empirically supported approaches to art-based assessment, some of which are written by the instrument developers themselves.
