“…These studies revealed that the CATs actively engage (Parsons et al, 2020) participants in artistic therapeutic activity and offer multiple options for verbal and non-verbal expression through symbolism and metaphor (Flanagan, 2004;Schiltz, 2014;Chiang et al, 2019;Dunphy et al, 2019). The CATs facilitate concretization, to make visible internal conflicts, which enables perspective-taking (Schiltz, 2014;Kalaf and Plante, 2019). In addition, participants experience a sense of creativity, artistic pleasure, and achievement as they develop artistic skills (Chiang et al, 2019;Dunphy et al, 2019;Parsons et al, 2020).…”

Empirical studies in the creative arts therapies (CATs; i.e., art therapy, dance/movement therapy, drama therapy, music therapy, psychodrama, and poetry/bibliotherapy) have grown rapidly in the last 10 years, documenting their positive impact on a wide range of psychological and physiological outcomes (e.g., stress, trauma, depression, anxiety, and pain). However, it remains unclear how and why the CATs have positive effects, and which therapeutic factors account for these changes. Research that specifically focuses on the therapeutic factors and/or mechanisms of change in CATs is only beginning to emerge. To gain more insight into how and why the CATs influence outcomes, we conducted a scoping review (Nstudies = 67) to pinpoint therapeutic factors specific to each CATs discipline, joint factors of CATs, and more generic common factors across all psychotherapy approaches. This review therefore provides an overview of empirical CATs studies dealing with therapeutic factors and/or mechanisms of change, and a detailed analysis of these therapeutic factors which are grouped into domains. A framework of 19 domains of CATs therapeutic factors is proposed, of which the three domains are composed solely of factors unique to the CATs: “embodiment,” “concretization,” and “symbolism and metaphors.” The terminology used in change process research is clarified, and the implications for future research, clinical practice, and CATs education are discussed.

“…If the adolescents from the control group often playfully mention the monsters inside of themselves, the adolescents suffering from emotional or conduct disorders linked to a borderline organisation of the personality seem to have lost the internal freedom and flexibility vis-à-vis their own imaginary creations [15,16] They completely adhere to them, not being able to cognitively or humorously elaborate. These are qualities that they gradually acquire during therapy, depending on the expansion of the archetype of the double.…”

Background Stories written under musical induction allow studying symbolic figures emerging during the psychotherapeutic process. During multimodal arts psychotherapy, based on a combination of active music therapy and the production of stories under musical induction, the archetype of the alter ego frequently appears in texts written by adolescents (Schiltz, 2008). This archetype shows its different facets during the psychotherapeutic process. Methods and research questions With the help of a qualitative study, based on the phenomenological content analysis of the TAT and the stories written under musical induction with N=52 students suffering from emotional (subgroup I) or conduct disorders (subgroup D), we answered the following questions: • Can we recognise in these symbols compensatory features regarding the person’s initial problems? • Do they gradually expand during the therapeutic progress, so that they reflect the integration of the hidden and split parts of the self? • What is generally their role in the adolescents’ search for identity, beyond the realm of the pathology? Results The results of the study opened psychotherapeutic perspectives for tertiary prevention in adolescence.
