Imagining Animals: Art, Psychotherapy and Primitive States of Mind: Routledge Mental Health Classic Editions

Autor Caroline Case
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 iul 2025
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. Readers will benefit from learning about the different ways that animal symbolism can support autistic children and children navigating trauma, abuse and depression in engaging with the therapeutic process.
This essential book explores two contrasting primitive states of mind throughout: the investing of the world around us with life through animism and participation mystique, and the lifeless world in the states of mind encountered in children who are hard to reach. Featuring a new introduction by the author, subjects covered in subsequent chapters include, but are not limited to:
  • Animal/human relationships
  • Animal symbolism
  • Animals on stage in therapy and anthropomorphic animal objects
  • Three-dimensional clay-work
  • The location of the self in animals
Imagining Animals offers a unique insight into the role and representation of animal imagery in art therapy and child psychotherapy. This is an essential read for all arts and play therapists working with children as well as adult psychotherapists interested in the use of imagery.

Recenzii

'This gem of a book will enrich the thinking of all those working analytically with states of mind in which autistic and psychotic defences predominate. Case 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
