Poetry Therapy: A Framework and Synthesis of Techniques for Family Social Work |
| |
Abstract: | ABSTRACT The conjunction of poetry therapy and family social work is briefly discussed with respect to philosophical, theoretical, and professional issues. Noting that the use of poetry, narrative, metaphor, and the related language arts are within the purview of poetry therapy, 14 techniques applied to family therapy are examined. The limitations of poetry therapy and new directions for practice and research are also noted. |
