Reviews"For those of us who believe that imagination is at the core of what it is to be human, expressive arts therapies are obvious tools in the process of addressing mental disorders and psychic pain. This book takes a systematic, rigorous, highly informative approach to exploring how therapies that lean on the human ability to create and depict experience can take an individual beyond a history of adversity and trauma. This is the best introduction to expressive arts therapies for trauma that I've seen; it will be of immense value to anyone who is engaged in learning about these interventions or who just wants to find how and why they can be so very effective."--Peter Fonagy, OBE, FMedSci, FBA, PhD, Head, Division of Psychology and Language Sciences, University College London, United Kingdom; Chief Executive, Anna Freud Centre "This truly groundbreaking text is what the field has been waiting for! It is the first resource to thread together interpersonal neurobiological research on trauma with the role that expressive arts modalities can play in facilitating posttraumatic growth. Especially important is the systemic, culturally informed social justice perspective within which Malchiodi contextualizes her work. The book presents a healing-centered approach that embraces the intrinsic human capacity to use visual arts, movement, music, song, the written and spoken word, and drama for self- and co-regulation and mutual empowerment. We will adopt this book as a core text with specific relevance to our courses in Psychological Assessment and Creative Arts Therapy, Family and Couples Dynamics, and Expressive Arts and Trauma."--Shoshana Simons, PhD, RDT, Program Chair and Professor, Expressive Arts Therapy, California Institute of Integral Studies "Compelling evidence attests to the value of the expressive therapies as a treatment of choice for psychological trauma. Malchiodi offers practical, science-supported treatment strategies, illustrated by sensitive clinical vignettes from decades of experience. Without ever losing sight of the therapeutic relationship, the book emphasizes the action-oriented nature of the expressive therapies and their power to enhance self-regulation and communicate difficult emotional content. Written through a contemporary lens, and peppered with pop culture references, this text is an accessible staple for any graduate art therapy training classroom, and will be appreciated by all clinicians interested in holistic, whole-body care."--Juliet L. King MA, ATR-BC, LPC, LMHC, Associate Professor of Art Therapy, The George Washington University; Adjunct Associate Professor of Neurology, Indiana University School of Medicine "This book is poised to become the defining manual for expressive arts therapists and a key source of inspiration for those trained in 'talk therapies' only. It is exciting reading. The book is deeply informed by neurobiology, trauma theories, research, and decades of clinical practice--the crossover between creative and body-focused approaches has never before been discussed in this breadth. The book abundantly illustrates creative strategies to enhance relationships, safety, self-regulation, resilience, mindfulness, meaning making, and posttraumatic growth. Body-based, healing-focused arts modalities have undeniably found their place in psychotherapy."--Cornelia Elbrecht, MA, AThR, SEP, REAT, Institute for Sensorimotor Art Therapy, Australia, This book is thought provoking and reminds us that how and why therapists do what they do can make all the difference in patients achieving health, feelings of safety, and self-efficacy. This well-written contribution to the expressive arts is a must-read....The book is a blend of real-life trauma casework, seminal references and research, and the author's own honed intuition into patient needs for expression. From beginning to end, objectives are met and readers are left in awe of individuals' humanness and capacity for resilience when given the right tools and experiences....This book is a delight to read. This author is committed to a process of learning, growing, and becoming positively alive through self-expression. I was left heavy-hearted with real-life story reminders of how brutality can crush the human spirit and experience. Thank goodness the weight was lifted by an innovative exploration into patient/client safety, reparation, and resilience and a brilliant, effective provision of well-thought-out information and activities., "For those of us who believe that imagination is at the core of what it is to be human, expressive arts therapies are obvious tools in the process of addressing mental disorders and psychic pain.
