Posthuman Possibilities Of Dance Movement Psychotherapy Caroline Frizell by Caroline Frizell; instant download after payment.

This timely book explores an ecofeminist approach to dance movement psychotherapy, with an emphasis on the posthuman possibilities of differently enabled bodies and fostering social, political and environmental justice.
Using the lenses of posthumanism and new materialism, this book examines the points of convergence among dance movement psychotherapy, ecopsychotherapy and critical disability studies. It maps out the experience of building care, empathy and kinship and explores ecologically informed, embodied practices and research, while offering new perspectives on these practices. Structured using thematic interruptions' between chapters to anchor the reading experience and provide coherence, chapters include case study extracts as examples from the practices, spanning group work and individual therapy with autistic and learning-disabled children and young people, as well as with neurotypical adult clients in private practice
Bringing together practice and research in dance movement psychotherapy along with cutting-edge theoretical perspectives of new materialism and posthumanism, the book will be of great interest to researchers and students of dance therapy, arts therapies, ecopsychotherapy and disability studies. It will also be useful to practitioners and therapists in psychotherapy and well-being services.
