Book Synopsis

This book presents a collection of practical exercises, games, structures and techniques for use by therapists, teachers and other groupwork leaders working in schools, hospitals and day centres. They include games suitable for a wide range of clients, such as those intended to enhance self-perception and those appropriate for particular groups, such as people with memory or attention problems. Many of the games and exercises go beyond the traditional realm of 'art therapy' and link up with other creative therapies and forms of groupwork.
