A Structured Observation Framework for Evaluating Clients’ Inner Change During and After Art Therapy

Holmqvist, Gärd and Lundqvist-Persson, Cristina LU (2023) In Art Therapy
Abstract

In order to provide clinical utility for research of how art therapists perceive clients’ inner change, the authors created a structured observational framework. This note-taking and assessment consist of five themes and sub-themes: Therapeutic Alliance, Creating, Affect-Awareness, Self-Awareness, and Ego-Strength. The framework was designed to be clinically-friendly, adaptable to various settings, and assist communication with both patients and relevant healthcare professionals.
