GROUP WORK SKILLS
This book is for individuals who want to develop experiential skills and process models in working with groups. Here you will find numerous group facilitation examples, art therapy exercises, ideas, and experiments that will provide you, the reader, with many creative tools.
Based on the author’s extensive group facilitation teaching at Universities in Canada, Europe, and Australia, as well as offering experiential group facilitation workshops all over the world, this book is an excellent and rich resource for those wishing to build and develop their group process skills.
I dedicate this book to many students, colleagues, managers, lecturers, supervisors, and teachers who have participated in my workshops.
This is also a dedication to my two sons who will be able to understand my life’s work.

THE PRINCESS and the DRAGON
The Princess and the Dragon may seem at first sight a book about a story. When the reader opens the pages he can dive into various exercises which implement solutions to his or her relationship, like the one between the Princess and Prince, not to mention the Dragon. With innovative exercises using the Gestalt Art Therapy approach, the book "Princess and the Dragon", becomes a book that should be present in the libraries of practitioners of psychology and therapy, interested in discovering new techniques and continuing to offer its clients creative solutions they bring to their meetings. The book is written in such a way that even people who do not have anything to do with the profession of counselling or psychotherapy, may read it and benefit from interesting experiments to practice with their partner. The Princess and the Dragon talk about female and male energies that exist in a relationship, independent of sexual orientation.

COLOURING BOOK
just for RELAXING - Animals
by Gemma Garcia
This is a book to be used when you are feeling stressed, bored, or not inspired.
This book is not an Art Therapy book.
I am a Gestalt Art Therapist and Co-Director of The Gestalt Art Therapy Centre (Australia) and I would like to explain to you that colouring books could be helpful when you feel upset or sad, but if you need more emotional support and therapy, I suggest you participate in some Gestalt Art Therapy sessions, not just colouring.

Autism and Masking
How and Why People Do It, and the Impact It Can Have
Authors: FELICITY SEDGEWICK, LAURA HULL &
HELEN ELLIS
Autistic people often feel they have to present as neurotypical or perform neurotypical social behaviours in order to fit in. So-called 'masking' is a social survival strategy used by autistic people in situations where neurodiversity is not understood or welcomed. While this is a commonly observed phenomenon in the autistic community, the complexities of masking are still not widely understood.
This book combines the latest research with personal case studies detailing autistic experiences of masking. It explains what masking is and the various strategies used to mask in social situations. The research also delves into the psychology behind masking and the specifics of masking at school, at social events with peers, and at work. The book looks at the consequences of masking, including the toll it can have on mental and physical health, and suggests guidance for family, professionals, and employers to ameliorate negative effects.
With a diverse range of voices, including perspectives across gender, ethnicity and age, this is the comprehensive guide to masking and how to support autistic people who mask.
