Empowering readers to approach children with autism with greater flexibility and understanding, this collection of inspiring narratives shows the positive impact creative therapy has on characteristics of autism. The child-centred, multi-creative approach displays an exciting array of beneficial therapies such as dance, music and meditation.

A vivid exploration of working with autistic children using empowering techniques from a range of creative therapies. Each chapter in this heartening book is the story of a child with autism and how therapy was pivotal in confronting his or her individual dilemma.

Covering many of the behaviours characteristic to autism, such as uncontrolled anger and obsessive tendencies, the therapies used range from drawing and dancing to meditation and martial arts, depending on the needs and interests of each child. The key message is that investing in the relationship between the therapist and the child - so that they grow, play and develop together - is transformative.
