Art Therapy Has Many Faces

An overview of the field of Art Therapy, a 20th century profession with its roots in ancient times and in creating in order to cope with pain. With images of clinicians from all over the world serving a wide variety of people, the film shows: the history and development of art therapy, what art therapists do to help people to create and reflect, the major theoretical approaches, the expansion of the discipline, and some of the reasons art therapy has grown so rapidly.
