Grief and the Expressive Arts: Practices for Creating Meaning: Series in Death, Dying, and Bereavement

Editat de Barbara E. Thompson, Robert A. Neimeyer
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 ian 2014
The use of the arts in psychotherapy is a burgeoning area of interest, particularly in the field of bereavement, where it is a staple intervention in hospice programs, children’s grief camps, specialized programs for trauma or combat exposure, work with bereaved parents, widowed elders or suicide survivors, and in many other contexts. But how should clinicians differentiate between the many different approaches and techniques, and what criteria should they use to decide which technique to use—and when? Grief and the Expressive Arts provides the answers using a crisp, coherent structure that creates a conceptual and relational scaffold for an artistically inclined grief therapy. Each of the book’s brief chapters is accessible and clearly focused, conveying concrete methods and anchoring them in brief case studies, across a range of approaches featuring music, creative writing, visual arts, dance and movement, theatre and performance and multi-modal practices. Any clinician—expressive arts therapist, grief counselor, or something in between—looking for a professionally oriented but scientifically informed book for guidance and inspiration need look no further than Grief and the Expressive Arts.

Recenzii

"Since time immemorial humans have brought grief into art, doubtless reflecting a need to bring art into grief. Love and loss are at the center of human existence. Anyone who loves deeply will ultimately face the pain of loss. As CS Lewis once said, "It [bereavement] is not a truncation of [a relationship] … but one of its phases; not the interruption of the dance, but the next figure. " Bereaved people need to learn to live with loss and its partner, grief. Artists themselves, as well as accomplished bereavement experts, Thompson and Neimeyer have brought together a collection of colleagues who describe a fascinating assortment of imaginative artistic strategies to inspire and vitalize the transformation and integration of grief. This volume will be an invaluable addition to the toolbox of those who work with bereaved people to help them embrace grief, weaving it into their minds, their lives and their hopes."
—M. Katherine Shear, MD, Marion E. Kenworthy Professor of Psychiatry at the Columbia University School of Social Work
 
"Thompson and Neimeyer, brilliant therapists and editors—the contemporary shamans of this volume—have furnished us not only with theory and how-to-do methods for using the creative and expressive therapies; they have reminded us that we, too, are wounded healers."
—Sandra L. Bertman, PhD, author of Facing Death: Images, Insights, and Interventions
 
"From sophisticated theory to empirical studies to clinical vignettes and elaborated techniques, this volume has it all. Grief and the Expressive Arts covers a range of creative practices and artistic modalities that are as rich and variegated as the very artistic foundations that underlie them. For anyone seeking to bring the expressive arts into their clinical practice, this volume will become the standard for the field—the must-have book for your professional collection."
—John R. Jordan, PhD, coeditor of Grief After Suicide
 
"Warning to readers: You will not "finish" this volume. Drawn by its humanity in recognizing the ‘person’ of the service provider, the pain and complexity of grief, and the humanistic perspective that art, therapy, and loss are unfinished, you will return to reflect and examine this rich resource shaped by contributors from across disciplines, theories, and practice/educational settings. Truly the book is a great companion for your personal and professional journey, which always involves loss and the potential for growth through meaning making."
—Nicholas F. Mazza, PhD, dean and Patricia V. Vance Professor of Social Work at the Florida State University and editor of the Journal of Poetry Therapy
 
"Grief and the Expressive Arts is a comprehensive volume that offers pragmatic and creative suggestions to assist individuals in recovery from loss. Readers will enjoy user-friendly chapters on a variety of methods that can be applied to work with people of all ages. In particular, the authors encourage all helping professionals to use experiential interventions to assist clients in moving from survivors to thrivers. This book is a valuable resource for graduate students and professionals in the field of counseling, social work, psychology, marriage and family therapy, creative arts and play therapy, thanatology, and family medicine."
—Cathy Malchiodi, PhD, director of the Trauma-Informed Practices and Expressive Arts Therapy Institute and adjunct professor at Lesley University
