The fruit of more than twenty years of John Allan's clinical work with children - both "normal" in classrooms & those physically & sexually abused, emotionally neglected, & terminally ill. The book describes different ways to use art: both spontaneous & directed drawing, guided imagery, & active imagination. Rooted in Jung's theory of the regenerative self-healing ability of the psyche, Allan's approach is pragmatic, sensitive, & respectful. His clear language & feeling for his cases make the book widely accessible so that counsellors, teachers, parents - anyone involved with children - will find the ideas immediately useful & encouraging. The wealth of profound dimension of their suffering & strength, not merely providing examples but portraying experience.Allan, John A. B. is the author of 'Inscapes of the Child's World Jungian Counseling in Schools and Clinics' with ISBN 9780882143385 and ISBN 0882143387.
