Using evidence-based creative mindfulness techniques (CMT), this book acts as a useful guide for clinical mental health practitioners seeking to build resilience levels in clients recovering from trauma. It examines the effectiveness of the CMT approach, providing applicable art therapy techniques to enhance the therapist's toolbox for clinical effectiveness. Combining a psychodynamic and neurobiological clinical lens, this book helps practitioners recognize and utilize creativity in dealing with trauma exposure, its cultural considerations and its consequences on the individual, family and the system. It also provides insights into the neurophysiological impact of mindfulness techniques on the brain. Chapters explore the clinician's role in the treatment of trauma, wellness and the building of resiliency, creativity and alternative approaches to changing neural pathways, positive psychology and more. A collection of narrative case studies and guidance for specific activities to be used with diverse clients ensures easy practical usage of the theories explored. Clinical mental health practitioners who work with clients suffering from PTSD, clinical trauma, stress and anxiety will find this book essential.
