Download or read book Identity and Art Therapy written by Maxine Borowsky Junge and published by Charles C. Thomas Publisher. This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an attempt to give art therapy identity the front and center position it deserves. Despite efforts toward clarity, there will nevertheless remain many contradictory notions, often paradoxically existing at the same time. This is the nature of identity and of art therapy's identity. "Art therapy" is neither a form of artist nor a form of therapist, but rather a whole new field - a separate and special profession with core values and attributes of its own that must lead to a special and separate identity. Chapter 1 is the "Introduction" to this book. In Chapter 2, "Images of Identity," the basic groundwork is laid describing definitions of personal and professional identity and discussion of the concept of "intersectionality." Chapter 3, "Living in the Real World," discusses some unique problems faced by art therapists as they strive to achieve personal and professional identity and credibility. Chapter 4, "Essays on Identity by Art Therapists," contains 22 essays by prominent art therapists who were invited to contribute their ideas. These essays can be considered different "readings" of what identity is in the art therapy field. Chapter 5, "Identity Initiative, Steps Toward a New Definition: An Action Plan," describes a two-year process, including all segments of the art therapy community, to achieve and promulgate a shared public professional identity. Chapter 6 underscores "Conclusions" to discover some baseline information about identity for students entering graduate art therapy programs. A brief questionnaire was given to three art therapy master's program directors to conduct this survey with their entering students in the fall 2012. An important and essential discussion of the nuances of identity by the art therapy community is a significant intention of the book. Identity and Art Therapy is primarily written for art therapists- both experienced and novice. It is for people who teach now and for those thinking about e

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Autism is a subject that has always fascinated and intrigued me; a closed and impenetrable universe that, after years of research, traditional and modern approaches are allowing us to understand and treat therapeutically. I tried to understand what is hidden in the mysterious and particular world of the autistic child; I wanted, therefore, to deepen this particular condition.It is extremely difficult to establish contact with these children, but the therapeutic use of music can be a more direct form of communication when the possibility of using traditional linguistic codes is lost. Music therapy, as a technique for opening communication channels, thus becomes the ideal therapy to approach autistic children. would you like to know more about autism? would you like to know more about music therapy? In the last twenty years on the national scene, as already for some time abroad, art therapies are emerging with increasing importance, or at least diffusion, and in particular music therapy which has now become a known and accredited practice.If we talk about music therapy today, we usually refer to an area of rehabilitation or treatment, which presupposes that we are in the sphere of discomfort. if you are interested and would like to know more, just click and buy this book!
