Rezensionen

"As theater people we are intrigued by the many different roles and affects that encompass the human experience. As clinical practitioners, we are interested in guiding our clients toward a more empowered, inspired existence. Dramatherapy and Autism addresses important clinical issues of social emotional development, behavior management, gender, and personal growth for people on the autism spectrum. The numerous dramatherapy perspectives and practical approaches presented, including role, metaphor and story, are rich and informative!" - Dr. Lee R. Chasen RDT, LCAT, Author of Social Skills, Emotional Growth and Drama Therapy and Engaging Mirror Neurons in Children and Teens on the Autism Spectrum

"This is a significant book which serves not only as an excellent, clear and concise introduction to the field of dramatherapy but also champions its importance to an unknowing world. As a Head Teacher, I have found the work of dramatherapists to be one of the most valuable therapeutic inputs that pupils have received. In my setting there have been many profound and life enhancing developments for children with ASD and this is clearly reflected throughout the book. A must read for all practitioners working with children with ASD." - Havard Spring, Head Teacher of a primary school with a 42 place ASD provision
