This book explores the role of body movement, drama, and music in helping the emotionally disturbed begin to come to terms with themselves and with daily living. The basic principles are outlined and their practical and therapeutic values discussed. The author then presents tested methods for using these three elements - movement, drama, and music - illustrating her proposals with detailed accounts of individuals and groups with whom she has worked. A valuable list of musical pieces, with notes on possible application in therapy, is also included. The book reflects the author's wide experience and deep understanding and sympathy for the problems of her subjects and of the therapists who work with them. "Movement and Drama in Therapy" is written to help those experienced in therapy who want to understand the new dimension of movement as a tool; for those trained in movement who seek to apply their skills in therapeutic and other remedial ways; and finally as an introduction for those in other related disciplines to make greater constructive use of movement, drama, music, and therapy.
