English summary: Writing is at once an expedition into one's own soul, a careful approach to one's inner world and one's environment; it also helps in the development of personality, allowing relevant conflicts in life to be approached and worked through. Creative and therapeutic writing is an intensive way to observe and experience things, to change one's usual way of seeing things, to expand one's horizon. This volume introduces techniques such as imagination and dreams for just this purpose. Everyone can write; no literary or linguistic skills are prerequisite to beginning. Rather, everyone has his or her own way of expressing things. This workbook contains a number of writ-ing exercises and tutorials for use by poetry therapists, psychotherapists and writing instructors. It also supports attempts at poetic self-analysis. German description: Schreiben kann eine Entdeckungsreise zu sich selbst, eine achtsame Annaherung an die eigene Person und die Umwelt sein und es fordert die Personlichkeitsentwicklung. Relevante lebensgeschichtliche Konflikte konnen aufgearbeitet werden. Kreatives und therapeutisches Schreiben intensiviert die Wahrnehmungs- und Erlebnisfahigkeit, es verandert die routinierte Wahrnehmung und erweitert den Blick. Hierfur werden Techniken wie Imagination und Traumarbeit vorgestellt. Eigenes Schreiben steht jedem offen, es bedarf keiner besonderen literarischen oder sprachwissenschaftlichen Fahigkeiten, vielmehr ist in jedem Menschen ein sprachliches Ausdrucksvermogen vorhanden. Dieses Arbeitsbuch enthalt zahlreiche Schreibubungen und Anleitungen fur Poesietherapeuten, Psychotherapeuten und Schreibgruppenleiter. Es unterstutzt ausserdem die poetische Selbstanalyse.
