Creative activities for every stage of the CBT process
Patricia Sherwood is a counsellor and psychotherapist with 25 years' experience in the mental health field. She is based in Boyanup, Western Australia.
Dr Sherwood's innovative text adds holistic, therapeutic depth and
breadth to classical CBT through introducing specific, replicable
and evaluable sequences of steps drawn from the creative art
therapies, incorporating mediums of sand, colour, drama, clay and
play. Client transformations are advanced through working with
these expressive therapeutic materials within a CBT framework. This
excellent book is highly recommended for members of the healing
professions in general and counselling psychologists in
particular.

I enjoyed this book. It is written in a straightforward, readable
style, without too much jargon, and the instructions for the
exercises are clear and easy to follow. I think it would be useful
for any counsellor wanting an easy 'How to...' addition to their
library that helps incorporate art activities in their work.
