Past president of the Association des Art-th+¬rapeutes du Qu+¬bec (AATQ), exhibiting artist, author, mother and grandmother, her current project is researching parent-child work for a PhD in art therapy.
Clinical issues in parent-child dyad art therapy; the role of the parent as partners in child art therapy; the sensory experience and internalization; the art therapy attachment metaphor; symbols and metaphors in art making; the role of the art therapist as facilitator.
This volume offers a new and exciting model of treatment for attachment-disordered children. The unique and clearly depicted art therapy interventions will amaze the reader and enchant those seeking effective tools to facilitate the development of primary relationships. By combining the achievements of attachment theorists and investigators with her creativity and developmental expertise, Lucille Proulx has created a series of art therapy interventions that offer a delightful method of treatment consistent with current advances in psychology and the neurosciences. Strengthening Emotional Ties is a very important contribution to the field of art therapy and to mental health researchers and providers assessing and treating very young children and their families.
