In The Healing Doll Way Barb shares stories and images from her transformative experience becoming a healing doll artist, as well as those of many of her students and peers. The book also guides you through the process of making healing dolls for yourself. The act of making a doll can take you through a process of imagination, healing, and growth. You do not need to be an expert at dollmaking—or artmaking, for that matter—to experience the healing power of this kind of work. This dollmaking process invites and encourages readers to explore a range of perceptions and emotions, and in doing so reach a deeper level of understanding and acceptance of themselves.

The Healing Doll Way is a treasure. The illustrations alone are beautiful and inspiring. But Barb’s offering is beyond the visual. I’ve been blessed to have Barb mentor me through the healing process detailed in this book. If you’re seeking to explore your inner terrain, to gain insight or to transform some part of your life, look no further. Dive into these pages and let Barb’s gentle and enlightening guidance lead you forward.

"Beautiful, amazing, inspiring
This book was long overdue. So many books have been written about the benefits of healing arts but for me this one is outstanding because it explains in a very good structure how one can overcome struggles in life through creating healing dolls. For me as a therapist for transformative therapy using art and as a sculptor this is the perfect book to have. I have been in touch with the author who is a very inspiring woman, you can feel that she wrote the book with love, wisdom and passion. It is an excellent book for women who want to transform their life, find purpose, heal themselves and their environment but also for therapists.
The images are wonderful and the list of questions at the end of every chapter adds a practical element. Absolutely recommend, a definite buy-IN HARD COPY!
