Art Therapy for the Severe and Profound.

Eydenberg, Marcia G.

Child and Family Behavior Therapy, v8 n2 p1-3 Sum 1986

Art therapy enhances the cognitive abilities of most students no matter how severely affected they may be. It also provides an emotional outlet and opportunity to gain self-worth. Schools would do well to seek out educator-therapists in the arts to serve the special needs of mainstreamed children. (LHW)
