In Depth
There are many approaches to expressive arts therapy these days, and what makes Natalie Rogers’s approach unique is its foundation in the person-centered approach developed by her father, Carl Rogers. You don’t have to identify as an expressive arts therapist to benefit from this video; but you may find after watching these sessions, that you are inspired to add expressive arts techniques into some of your sessions with some of your clients, as it is an excellent way to go deeper, and help clients access parts of themselves that words do not reach. And even if you’re not interested in using expressive arts in your work at all, this is an exceptional training video for those wanting a deeper understanding of the person-centered approach. Any therapist who wants to learn how to really listen to their clients and create the conditions for change to occur will gain an enormous amount from this video. Rogers is truly an expert in demonstrating presence, empathy, warmth, and congruence.
In the discussions at the beginning and end of each session, Rogers goes into detail about key aspects of the person-centered approach and how integrating expressive arts enhances the work. She also shares her reflections on the sessions here and in commentary that is interspersed throughout the sessions, so you gain insight into her interventions and really get a sense of how she thinks and why she does what she does.
