Lauren Leone is a gifted writer/editor, art therapist, and fiber artist whose collection disrupts the notion that only the fine arts media are used by art therapists. This engaging, enjoyable book connects craft history with a wide variety of craft media to inform art therapy practice and research. The book's authors bring unique, personal examples from their own experiences and approaches to craft, layering historical and contemporary craft practices with personal, clinical, and activist applications. Craft in Art Therapy should be required reading for all art therapy curricula.
