Biography

Marian Liebmann

'An excellent, stimulating account by an experienced art therapist of how and with what result this approach may be used in groups.' - British Journal of Psychiatry

'This second edition has a fund of information for practicing art therapists and others that is invaluable. Being theme based like the first, it provides greater resources for almost any situations concerning working with groups... A list of resources, a comprehensive bibliography and links with other art therapy organizations in other countries gives this book a universial appeal. Most practitioners will benifit from having a copy on their book shelf.' - Kanta Walker, The Psychotherapist, Autumn 2004
