Abstract
This chapter explores the topic of digital media in art therapy and describes a case wherein stop-animation was used as a clinical tool. Several inherent qualities of digital video are isolated and described, and these qualities are discussed in the context of previous research outcomes that support these observations. Digital media in art therapy is further explored from the perspective of art therapy practitioners who use this approach, as the findings from an original qualitative study are summarized. The chapter concludes with questions regards where digital media might progress as vital art forms, relational tools, and therapeutic processes in therapy.
