First published in 1996. One of the most pressing challenges to therapists is how to modify and implement methods for the special needs of differing populations. In Dance and Other Expressive Art Therapies, Fran Levy brings together leading practitioners who present exciting and creative approaches to treatment. Combing both theory and practice, the case studies are diverse and unique. Topics covered include sexual and physical abuse, addiction, co-dependency, anxiety, multiple personality disorders, aging and disturbed and disabled adolescents, children and infants. The contributors show to only diverse dynamics but specific approaches designed to meet a variety of psychological and physical problems. This volume is a key resource for dance, movement, drama, and art therapists. It demonstrates new and creative ways in the use the healing power of the arts.
