Embodied practices in arts therapies are frequently constructed upon the premise of developmental psychotherapies. This paper problematises some of the key concepts commonly used in arts therapies and explores a new intra-active framework for becoming. Relationality, boundaries and the context of change processes are revisited to investigate modelling an approach that decentres human subjectivity and considers the relevance of embodiment and the environment in relation to therapeutic change. Intersections between art, developmental psychotherapies, arts therapies and aesthetics form the basis of retheorising the dynamic relations of art-therapist-patient.
