Contemporary Art Therapy with Adolescents

  • Riley, Shirley

“Art therapy is not an exclusive modality; it offers many positive opportunities for a wide variety of clients and therapists. It is a great way to get past the initial wall that surrounds the troubled teenager, and a fine therapeutic tool to encourage the story the youth would like to tell. Adolescents want to let others know how ‘screwed up’ they find the world, but they do not trust enough to use words. They can more comfortably employ the silent form of communication through images. As long as they are not pressed to talk, paradoxically, they will. The art form is safe and under their control.”
Shirley Riley, author
