Theory and Practice Using this book as a guide, Art Therapy students may be more empowered to enter into the uncertain terrains of their practice, grounded in a theory soundly based in their area of study. Practitioners will no doubt be encouraged, validated, and inspired to continue their work. Educators can employ the twelve principles as they teach the basic theories and applications of group dynamics and processes. Advocates and practitioners continually explain, evaluate, and communicate what they do; the author succeeds in establishing a framework that allows Art Therapists to communicate the value of their work in a language that is unique to Art Therapy.
