About this Item

: Este libro presenta un enfoque paso a paso de una nueva y prometedora técnica para tratar a personas con trastornos alimentarios, tanto niños como adultos, hombres y mujeres. Mury Rabin demuestra cómo su galardonada técnica de terapia artística, conocida como Tareas de Imagen Corporal Fenomenal y No Fenomenal o "PNBIT", puede ser utilizada por clínicos que no son terapeutas artísticos y muestra su eficacia en combinación con diversas técnicas terapéuticas. A diferencia de los programas de terapia tradicionales que tratan los síntomas, esta técnica se centra en las causas profundas y consiste en una serie de tareas, algunas fenomenales (registro de peso, visualización en el espejo y estimaciones de las dimensiones corporales) y otras no (dibujos cromáticos de líneas familiares y mandalas de imagen corporal). El libro incluye cinco estudios de caso que ilustran cómo funciona la técnica PNBIT en la práctica.

About this title

Synopsis

Art Therapy and Eating Disorders is a step-by-step approach to a new and extremely promising technique for treating people with eating disorders―children as well as adults, male and female sufferers alike―that has proven to be a crucial aid to identification, prevention, and intervention. Mury Rabin demonstrates how her award-winning art therapy technique, known as Phenomenal and Nonphenomenal Body Image Tasks or "PNBIT," can be used by clinicians other than art therapists and shows its effectiveness in combination with diverse therapeutic techniques.

Unlike traditional therapy programs that treat symptoms, this technique focuses on root causes and consists of a series of tasks―some phenomenal: weight recording, mirror viewing, and body dimension estimates; others not: chromatic family line drawings and body image mandalas. The book includes five case studies that illustrate how the PNBIT technique functions in practice.
