This passionate and exciting book demonstrates the wide theoretical base of art therapy presenting new areas of clinical practice.

the value of art for the pre-verbal child the preventative role of art therapy in schools. the development of imagination in 'hard to reach' and dyspraxic children the importance of working with the family and professional network in the different settings of health, social services, education and voluntary sector.Art Therapy with Children: From Infancy to Adolescence will inspire the student, encourage the clinician and interest an international readership of all professionals working with children and young people.
