Treatment Approaches for Body Image in Art Therapy

How can we understand body image through a therapeutic lens? Using up-to-date research in neuroscience and diverse clinical populations, this is a comprehensive and practical overview for practicing clinicians, with a specific focus on medical settings, eating disorder treatment, and trauma, with clinical case examples.

To enhance therapeutic treatment of body image, this book examines the multi-factors involved in body image as well as the neuroscience of body image, that is the role of the brain in body image development. Examining the social, cultural, psychological and environmental implications of body image, readers are guided through various problems, clinical populations, treatment settings, art therapy approaches, best practices, and clinical case examples.
Content is divided in to categories of: body image in medical settings, eating disorder treatment, and trauma - including chapters on amputations, sex trafficking, trauma, queer body image, peri and postpartum, cancer, and other medical conditions.
