The Art and Science of Dance/Movement Therapy Reviews

Aside from the obvious pleasure of having another excellent reference book on dance/movement therapy to add to the growing body of literature, The Art and Science of Dance/Movement Therapy also makes several important contributions to the field. For the psychological community at large, this book is a clear, concise, and thoughtful introduction to the theoretical values and principles of dance/movement therapy. For the developing dance/movement therapist, it is an invaluable teaching tool. And for the seasoned dance/movement therapist, it is simply a pleasure to read. -Julie Miller, American Dance Therapy Association

This exceptional text is a must read for professionals in the mental health, health and education fields, graduate students in DMT, and allied professionals who want a more thorough understanding of DMT. It captures the essence of this unique and powerful treatment modality and offers a rich and diverse cross-cultural perspective. -Arlynne Stark, MA, MAS, ADTR, LPC, CMA; Past President, American Dance Therapy Association; Former Professor and Director, Dance/Movement Therapy Graduate Program, Goucher College

This is destined to be a classic resource for dance therapists and is accessible to practitioners from other fields and the public. It is a truly remarkable and unique volume that engagingly describes the transformative nature of dance/movement therapy and how it can generate positive behavioral and emotional outcomes that affect individuals and communities.
-Robyn Flaum Cruz, PhD, ADTR, Associate Professor, Lesley University Division of Expressive Therapies, Editor-in-Chief, The Arts in Psychotherapy
