• Sommario/riassunto: This book demonstrates how the non-verbal medium of art therapy provides an ideal outlet for the expression of thoughts and feelings that are too complex and painful to put into words, presenting a new ; and practical approach to dealing with this area of need. Marian Liebmann argues that clients of all ages will benefit from the art-making process.
