From the beginning, its characteristics as a group process and therapeutic potential have been discussed. As this increasingly more common approach to storytelling most often seeks to stimulate individual and/or communal emotional growth/healing, the literature on it is also increasing. However, a significant portion of said literature has been focused on anecdotal type of reporting. Given the latter, we put together a systematic review of the literature on PT, geared towards identifying the literature sources that report evaluations, either qualitative or quantitative, of PT applications. Hence, our aim was to produce a comprehensive summary of the effects that have been reported in evaluation-centered studies of PT applications of all scopes. We searched four major electronic databases (PsycINFO, Web of Science, PubMed, and Scopus) for PT interventions between 1990 and June 2023. The quality of the studies gathered was evaluated by considering both the existence or absence of a control group and the reliability of the evaluation strategies employed, thus controlling for the risk of bias, consistent with the PRISMA protocol (Liberati et al. (2009)). The database search successfully identified 79 peer-reviewed articles on the subject of PT. Of these, 18 were English-written articles that reported on the use of evaluative measures concerning PT programs. The populations that benefited from these programs included children, adults, and older adults. Additionally, these articles included the application of PT in different contexts, from improving language skills to the promotion of mental health among individuals and/or communities. The results gathered lend support to the successful use of PT in enhancing cognitive, social, and emotional skills. Recommendations to increase and improve the reporting of PT effects are discussed.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47590,"journal":{"name":"Arts in Psychotherapy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0197455624000376/pdfft?md5=3c2ae4a651da30c9bcac059b191bc1ed&pid=1-s2.0-S0197455624000376-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140786450","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The current paper presents guidelines for art-based parental training, based on the assumption that the encounter between the world of art and the world of therapy creates a rich triangular relationship between therapist, parent, and artwork. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 15 art therapists who described their experiences and the interventions they have developed for parents. The findings show how these interventions can be applied in clinical settings and how these art therapists see the impact of these art-based interventions on the therapeutic process. Most therapists believe that encouraging parents to create spontaneously and authentically in a suitable environment that contains a range of art materials for painting and sculpture can support the initiation of emotional communication on the part of the parents with themselves, their partner, and their child. In this type of therapy, the parents’ responses and the creative product are primordial since they are considered to reflect the parents’ development, personal skills, fields of interest, concerns, and difficulties. The guidelines are derived from these findings.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47590,"journal":{"name":"Arts in Psychotherapy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140784620","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The current study outlines patient engagement and satisfaction with a 4-session DMT/CBT program at an inpatient addiction treatment facility. The 4-session manualized DMT/CBT protocol comprised “impulse inventory,” “studying impulses,” “subconscious movement,” and “body language.” Participants reported the most engagement in “studying impulses” and attended an average of 2.38 sessions during their time in treatment. Most patients reported receiving some (55%) or substantial (23%) benefit from the protocol. These findings lay the foundation to better optimize a DMT/CBT protocol for patients struggling with alcohol and substance use disorders. However, about a quarter of patients received no benefit from the group (23%), highlighting known barriers to DMT in general.

Previous studies show that Jungian Sandplay Therapy (SPT) effectively improves anxiety symptoms in individuals with GAD. This study explores whether clinical symptom improvement from using SPT also involves changes in brain functioning. The study focused on the brain regions implicated in GAD, including the hippocampus, amygdala, thalamus, and prefrontal cortex (PFC). Magnetic resonance spectroscopy was used to target these brain regions to measure metabolite changes, specifically in the N-Acetylaspartate to creatine (NAA/Cr) ratio—a measure of neuronal viability. A within-subject pre-post design was utilized with adult females from Indonesia diagnosed with GAD (n = 6, ages 21 to 40). Thirty sessions of SPT were provided weekly. Results from both clinical measures of anxiety (HAM-A and GAD-7) indicated mean pretest scores in the clinical range, with average posttest scores below the clinical range for GAD. Likewise, the NAA/Cr ratio mean scores for the hippocampus, amygdala, and PFC were outside the healthy range before and trended toward or into the healthy range after treatment. The NAA/Cr ratio mean scores in the thalamus were in the healthy range before treatment and remained in the healthy range after treatment. This study concludes that SPT effectively improves clinical anxiety symptoms in individuals with GAD and may also improve metabolic brain functioning in the limbic system and PFC.
