This creative arts therapies approach involves clients choosing a character from myth or fairy tale as a way of working with unconscious personal material. Suitable for therapeutic group work and individual use, this practical, step-by-step resource includes guidelines on the process, conceptual background information, and clinical case vignettes.
Somewhere hidden in the depths of each story lies a treasure waiting to be discovered...

This creative arts therapies approach uses myth and fairy tale to explore personal challenges. Clients begin by choosing a myth or fairy tale character they feel drawn to, but don't know why. They and their chosen character then embark on a guided creative journey that leads them to discover hidden, unconscious, aspects of themselves.

The process is holistic, using all the arts. In addition to explaining the theoretical background of this approach, the book provides detailed step-by-step instructions for readers to follow for their own personal exploration, including specific creative exercises at each stage, and guidelines for using the approach with clients. Also included are clinical case vignettes, reflections from people who have experienced the process, and the authors own personal journey.

Whether you are a creative arts therapist seeking to expand your practice, or a health professional searching for a new, creative way of working with clients, The Story Within is an exciting new resource.
