Description
Environmental Expressive Therapies contributes to the emerging phenomenon of eco-arts therapy by highlighting the work that international expressive arts therapists have accomplished to establish a framework for incorporating nature as a partner in creative/expressive arts therapy practices.
Each of the contributors explores a particular specialisation and outlines the implementation of multi-professional and multi-modal "earth-based" creative/expressive interventions. These are interventions that practitioners can use in their daily work with patients who have various clinical needs.
Different forms of creative/expressive practicesβsuch as creative writing, play therapy techniques, visual arts, expressive music, and dramatic performancesβare included. These practices are combined with wilderness and animal-assisted therapy to maximise the spectrum of treatment options.
Environmental Expressive Therapies represents a variety of practical approaches and tools for therapists to use in order to achieve multiple treatment goals and promote sustainable lifestyles for individuals, families, and communities.
