Reviews for Jungian Art Therapy: Images, Dreams, and Analytical Psychology

Jungian Art Therapy carefully lays out Jung's model of the psyche for the art therapist seeking to enrich their work through an integration of Jungian theory. Jungian analysts and psychotherapists will find a valuable introduction to the integration of expressive art therapy techniques with Jungian psychotherapy. Grounding theory in image, Swan-Foster effectively provides clinical examples throughout to forge a bridge between Analytical Psychology and art therapy. Well-conceived and actualized. Mark Winborn, PhD, Jungian psychoanalyst and author of Deep Blues: Human Soundscapes for the Archetypal Journey and Shared Realities: Participation Mystique and Beyond. ã This book actively imagines into the layers of transformation patiently waiting for those longing to awaken the innate forces of creative expression. Readers will feel gratitude for Swan-Foster's generosity to competently synthesize the alchemical strands of art therapy with Jungian studies. Michael Franklin, PhD, ATR-BC, Naropa University
