Imagining Animals by Caroline Case

Imagining Animals by Caroline Case

This classic edition of Imagining Animals explores how the making of animal images in art therapy and child psychotherapy can act as a powerful catalyst for children who may be struggling with communication.

'This gem of a book will enrich the thinking of all those working analytically with states of mind in which autistic and psychotic defences predominateCase distils many years of clinical experience with "difficult-to-reach" child patients into a sensitively crafted work which not only uses a wealth of clinical material, but also stories, poetry and images, to convey her approach in theory and in practice. She offers us the animal world, both in itself and in metaphor, as a medium for contacting and relating to the primitive levels of experience encountered in working with profoundly defended areas of the psyche.'

Katherine Killick, Society of Analytical Psychology
