Description

In "Healing through Art" Nadia Ferrara shows how art therapy has been used as a successful form of healing. The result of her work as an art therapist in communities in northern Quebec, the book provides a comprehensive analysis of the nature of her patients' experiences. Ferrara examines how individual experience of trauma is perceived, defined, and narrated by Cree individuals and discusses the role that Cree culture and Cree definitions of self play in therapy. This book contains 38 illustrations.
