With die appropriate utilization of ego psychology, the therapist helps patients to create congruence between the inner world of fantasy, dreams and play, and the outer world of reality. Specifically, the book presents the concept and technique of play as it applies to object relations theory and the development of ego and self. The process of non-verbal expression and its relationship to verbal therapy is also examined in detail. While expressive therapy is presented primarily within a psychoanalytic orientation, the process can easily be adapted to humanistic, gestalt and transactional frameworks. This creative form of treatment integrates verbal and non-verbal therapy in one cohesive theory. Primary process communication is also viewed as an important link to self development, and various techniques are examined which acquaint the reader with this process. Of further significance is the therapist's ability to create metaphors that help patients bridge the gap between their inner and outer worlds. This work will be valuable to psychologists, psychiatrists, and art, music and dance therapists, as well as educators and students in the field of mental health. (Verlagstext) ISBN 0877051011
