摘要:"A vivid exploration of working with autistic children using empowering techniques from a range of creative therapies. Each chapter in this book is the story of a child with autism and how therapy was pivotal in confronting his or her individual dilemma. covering many of the behaviours characteristic to autism, such as uncontrolled anger and obsessive tendencies, the therapies used range from drawing and dancing to meditation and martial arts, depending on the needs and interests of each child. The key message is that investing in the relationship between the therapist and the child, so that they grow, play and develop together, is transformative."--book cover
