Abstract

Numerous studies have found that creative outputs can be used as a form of therapy because they often represent the expression of human tensions, problems or conflict. The therapy is relying on projective identification processes, bringing the unconscious at the surface, in a controlled way during therapy sessions, so the client can experience catharsis, releasing all the negative emotions. Our study aims to achieve a meta-analysis of the existing assesments used in art therapy so in, the future the researchers could develop a new instrument that will overcome their limits.
