Abstract
In Korea, the word, 'Literary Therapy' can be replaced by 'Bibliotherapy', 'Journal Therapy', 'Writing Therapy', 'Poem Therapy', 'Integrated Literary Therapy', or 'Imaginary-Oriented Poetry Therapy', and so on. This study, intended on people related to literary therapy, uses Q-methodology as useful research method of objectifying abstract concepts which can be perceived differently according to individual experience or perception, to investigate types of literary therapy's subjective perceptions. The result of study can be analyzed by four types: The first type is 'Pursuing Generalization', the second type is 'Considering the Therapist', the third type is 'Emphasizing the Integration', and the forth type is 'Maximizing the literary therapy'. Through this result of the study, we can find the responsibility of literary therapy as a leader of cultural, artistic therapy to break down various pathological situations which contemporary society have.
