Current Findings on Art Therapy and Individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder

Abstract

Given the high prevalence of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), there is a need to find effective treatment options. Art therapy can be a valuable addition to the multidisciplinary treatment approach for ASD. The current findings on the efficacy of art therapy as a supplementary intervention option for ASD will be reviewed. The following will review research on how art therapy improves the ability to relate, socialize, and improve on a lack of joint attention skills with individuals with ASD. The triadic and interactive square model of the therapeutic relationship will also be discussed in relation to working with this population.
