Research on the Application Fields and Practical Effects of Painting Therapy

Abstract

Abstract  

As a core non-verbal psychological intervention method, painting therapy has been widely applied in school education, clinical nursing, and services for special groups due to its advantages of low resistance and high adaptability. This study systematically retrieved domestic journal papers and master's theses related to painting therapy, organizing the intervention scenarios, standardized processes, and characteristics of core technical applications in various fields under the logical framework of school education-clinical nursing-special groups. It focuses on analyzing the three major intervention effects and their mechanisms of action. The research found that painting therapy demonstrates significant practical value across different groups, with group painting counseling and mandala painting therapy being the most widely used techniques. By integrating intervention experiences from various scenarios, this paper constructs a standardized practice guide, providing empirical support and operational references for the standardized promotion of painting therapy.
