Clinical papers, psychotherapeutic perspectives and techniques are examined in depth in this module. A clinical paper is assigned for students to read prior to each seminar, with a particular focus on child/adolescent psychotherapy. The clinical papers provide a framework from which discussions around theoretical and practical aspects of Child Art Psychotherapy are facilitated.
