Fundamentals of Artistic Therapy Founded Upon Spiritual Science - The Nature and Task of Painting Therapy

Based on many years of medical, artistic, therapeutic, and anthroposophic experience, the author presents a concentrated foundation for the development of artistic therapy and the training of therapists. Although written with painting therapists in mind, this clearly formulated book--a fundamental work in this field--will be of interest to anyone involved in other forms of therapeutic work, as well as all serious students of Anthroposophy.
Fundamentals of Artistic Therapy includes fifty full-color examples from Hauschka's course at the School for Artistic Therapy.
