Art Therapy – Working with Addictions
The use of art therapy in work with addictions has been well documented over the past twenty years. The theory and approaches that have emerged have placed the art process central to the process of change, self-reflection and recovery.
We will use the day to draw together the theoretical strands and reflect on clinical practice through case examples from the field. We will develop an understanding of the psychological models that have been developed in working with addictions and how art therapy has integrated these to form a compelling arts-based approach.
Both facilitators have years of experience to draw on and will use case materials to illustrate the art-based narratives which emerge from the clinical work.
