Product Information
The yield of more than forty years of John Allan's clinical work with children-both normal children in classrooms and those physically and sexually abused, emotionally neglected, and terminally ill-this book describes different ways to use art in counseling children: through both spontaneous and directed drawing, guided imagery, and active imagination. Rooted in C. G. Jung's theory of the regenerative, self-healing ability of the psyche, Allan's approach is pragmatic, sensitive, and respectful. His clear language and feeling for his cases make the book widely accessible, so that anyone involved with children-parents, teachers, and counselors-will find the ideas immediately useful and encouraging. The wealth of drawings, paintings, and writings by children give us entry to a profound dimension of both their suffering and strength.Product Identifiers
