Beskrivning

Drama plays a crucial role in healthy human development and dramatherapy can be particularly effective in helping troubled children or adolescents. In this book, twelve contributors, writing from a range of international and theoretical perspectives, show how the dramatic element in people's lives plays its part in patterns of healthy and unhealthy development. They describe practical ways of using dramatherapy with both groups and individuals and demonstrate that dramatherapy is a strategy that works, helping to bring about change and creativity.Dramatherapy with Children and Adolescents will be invaluable to all professionals who work with children, including social workers, probation officers, nurses and teachers, as well as dramatherapists and play therapists.

I also have no doubt that this book will become an essential text for all dramatherapists and their trainees.' Paul Holmes, in Clinical CHild Psychology and Psychiatry'This is a book full of a richness of ideas and experiences, tempered with just enough clinical material to keep the reader grounded in the day-to-day realities of therapeutic work with children, adolescents and their families ... there can be no doubt about the therapeutic skill and enthusiasm of the various authors.' - British Journal of Psychotherapy'This book provokes relfection regarding one's own attitudes and work with children and adolescents and is a valuable resource book for all professionals in this field.' - NAPOT Journal
