Abstract
With an international focus, this book considers how art techniques and exercises can be used in therapeutic work across cultural and race boundaries.
Drawing on her experience working in post-Apartheid South Africa, the author gives practical guidance on how to overcome resistance to the therapeutic process, misunderstandings, and other barriers, such as language difficulties. With illuminating case studies, the book explains how to handle very practical issues, such as working with an interpreter, and opens the door to a wider conversation around the use of art in multicultural work.
Lorette Dye is Founder and Director of Helios Counselling Services in South Africa. She frequently presents workshops and lectures internationally on a variety of subjects, including intercultural work.
