Art Therapy and Ad/HD: Diagnostic and Therapeutic Approaches Safran Diane
Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder is increasingly being diagnosed in people of all ages, and this book demonstrates how art therapy can not only assist with diagnosis, but also provides a valuable means of helping to improve skills such as concentration and focus, boost self-esteem, and cope with impulsivity. Art therapy is also important for alleviating feelings of isolation and confusion that may come with the diagnosis, and, as an ongoing process, it can be a useful tool for checking clients' progress from the initial assessment onwards.In the first part of her book, the author explores ways of using art therapy and of setting up art therapy groups. Educational social skills art groups can help with understanding of AD/HD in addition to teaching strategies to relieve the symptoms.
Her advice and practical suggestions will be useful to anyone with an interest in AD/HD.
