'Using Drawings in Assessment and Therapy provides a comprehensive and practical overview of a variety of drawing methods used in evaluation and treatment. This revised edition cogently explains how simple drawing tasks assist and enhance work with children, adults, families, and groups and is a welcome addition to every clinician's library. Richly illustrated with case examples, this book covers everything mental health professionals need to use drawings in intervention and to facilitate meaningful communication and insight in their clients.' - Cathy A. Malchiodi, ATR, CPAT, LPCC, author of Understanding Children's Drawings and Handbook of Art Therapy 'Using Drawings in Assessment and Therapy is an excellent educational and insightful book. I was impacted by vivid case descriptions, enriched by assessment guidelines and delighted with the visual images that made this text a highly stimulating and valuable resource. I strongly recommend this book to all mental health professionals who want to enhance their work by introducing drawings into their therapy sessions.' - Marcie Brooks, M.A., LPCC practices and resides in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
