Confusing and boring reading. Only a small portion is dedicated to group ideas. A real disappointment.
Rating: 2 / 5
I’m actually disappointed in the book. The content is not clear, the exercises are vague. all in all a disappointment for me. Maybe my expectations were too high. Going to give it more time this week. If I’m wrong by the tie I’m finished, I’ll recant.

Unlike the first 2 reviews of this book, my opinion falls somewhere in between. While this is not the most comprehensive or profound book on art therapy, it is a practical guide for practitioners who need lots of ideas for group activities. How well they work depends on the skills and insight of the group leader, as well as the readiness of the group participants. One of my art therapy students bought this book recently and found it quite useful. For the more advanced practitioner, it might feel a bit too much like a recipe book. I recommend it as one tool in your art therapy toolbox.

This is a great book and very helpful if you practice art therapy as I do. I especially like how she has given special consideration to all kinds of groups, it’s not just an abstract manual. Referred to it by a colleague, I would recommend it also.

I’m Thai student of MA program in counseling psychology. I’m also a prationer of creative arts therapy. I found that this book is quite useful for the beginner of art therapy. This book offers many activities, exercises and games which you could adapt it in your own work. So I recommend you to have this book as your material.
