Rezensionen

"With its diverse perspectives and wealth of real-world knowledge, Art and Expressive Therapies Within the Medical Model is packed with useful information to spark innovative practice. Readers will discover how experienced therapists creatively work across a full range of medical populations and settings, offering the tools, basic principles, and processes that are helping to restore quality and affirm life in the face of impairment and illness. Chapters written by prominent practitioners put practical, interdisciplinary application back into medical art therapy and encourage reflection on this uniquely rewarding, life-altering work at the borders of human vulnerability."

"Elkis-Abuhoff and Gaydos's edited volume covers a broad range of expressive arts therapies that will provide a novice or experienced clinician with something new to think about. This book is a modern approach to psychosocial care in expressive arts therapies. I can't wait to use this in my medical art therapy class!"
