Abstract
This chapter provides an overview of processes and outcomes of art therapy using both personal experiences and professional examples of art-making. Along with acknowledging scholarship on the purpose and impacts of visual art-making, the focus of this chapter is specifically on the components of art therapy, including art-making, the art product, the patient/client, and the art therapist and how we might approach research by integrating findings from imaging technologies and neurobiological approaches.
