What is Kaleidoscope... Color and Form Illuminate Darkness: An Exploration of Art Therapy and Exercises for Patients with Dementia about?
"Kaleidoscope" explores the ways in which art therapy is an extremely effective treatment modality for working with dementia patients. Ellen Stewart surveys what is known about Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and related dementia's, as well as the new treatments available and some current research results. Several fascinating case studies will enlighten and absorb the reader, including one on the late Willem de Kooning. An original assessment form is included and an entire section of exercises to use with groups or individuals. The creative process in and of itself is healing. Truly, a picture can speak a thousand words.
