Using Drawings in Assessment and Therapy: A Guide

Dr. Oster has transformed his considerable expertise in clinical drawings into a navigational tool through the landscape of mental health assessment and treatment. Although we instinctively know that clients' drawings are the richest source of thoughts and feelings, few of us have been taught to use this material in a systematic way. This companion guide to Dr. Oster's earlier works leads us step-by-step in how to use this invaluable therapeutic tool in individual, family and group work.
