Abstract
The authors discuss a creative clinical intervention that derived from collaborative treatment facilitated by art and dance/movement therapist counselors. This interdisciplinary method, called "the button method,' expanded into a learning tool in graduate education and professional development trainings. As the method evolved, music therapy was integrated to enhance both the workshop and classroom experiences. The authors describe a five-step model for collaboration using the button method. Examples and considerations are offered as illustrations for clinicians across mental health disciplines interested in exploring collaborative work with creative arts therapists.
