There is increasing pressure on therapists to provide details of structured assessments and to report therapy outcomes to funders, employers and colleagues. This edited volume offers a series of case studies, with diverse client groups, providing arts therapists with an accessible introduction to assessment and outcome measures that can be easily integrated into their regular practice.

The book demonstrates, within a practice-based evidence framework, how measures can be customized to meet the individual needs of clients. The case studies present assessment and outcome models for music therapy, art therapy, and dramatherapy used with various client groups, including people with intellectual disabilities, Autism Spectrum Disorders, Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson's Disease, and those experiencing depression, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, or dealing with grief.
