Description

Identify expressions of mood through your clients' drawings and paintings

This recording provides definitions of what Art Therapy is and how it differs from verbal therapy. The role of art-making in diagnosis and treatment is addressed through assessment by examining age-appropriate drawing skills and the symbolism of images that have personal meaning to our clients. In addition, this course examines art-making as personal growth and its therapeutic benefits. The attendees will learn specific indicators to look for in their clients' art work and how to identify key images through the presentation of several case studies. Through these case studies the participants will identify how clients can express their mood through drawing and painting. Psychological and behavioral problems, such as regression and impairments, will be identified through the symbolism in clients' art work.
