Trauma Healing at the Clay Field: A Sensorimotor Art Therapy Approach Paperback – Illustrated, October 15, 2012

This is an one of the most amazing therapy books I have ever read. I devoured this book in three days! I am a lover of sandplay therapy and Peter Levine's work about trauma and the body. This book took core understandings of art therapy, somatics and archetypal psychology and introduced me to not only a new therapeutic modality but helped me see and understand what is happening when I work with my clients in other expressive arts modalities. I HIGHLY recommend this book if you are drawn to work with clients who have experienced trauma and are drawn to work with the body and expressive arts in your therapeutic work.

Groundbreaking! The idea that work with clay can heal trauma, especially preverbal early trauma is amazing and included case studies prove that it is possible. I personally experiment with "Play Doh Field" - as it is cleaner option - and got some eyeopening insights about myself. Worth reading!

The author is a master. This book is a testament to the powerful work she has done in the field of trauma therapy. I attended a workshop she did for professionals and was very impressed by her presentation, her methods and clinical results.

Powerful!!! The power to heal with something as elementary as mud, changes lives and reconnects the injured child in all of us. This a must for all creatives, non-creatives, teachers, therapists and those of us who just want to know how to become whole again!

Great sharing of knowledge and insight into the clay field. Brilliant tool.

Lot of repiditivdness in the book. Not a lot of reading. Bought it for my dissertation, Intresting ideas to talk about and good case studies.

Ok

Really great

excellent

ich finde es eine wunderbare Arbeit.interessanter nonverbaler Ansatz,nach dem Trauma die Welt fühlend gestalten statt emotional "abgeschaltet" Vergangenes wiederholt erdulden
