Now in a significantly revised second edition featuring 85% new material, this authoritative play therapy reference and text comprehensively reviews the current state of the field. Expert contributors describe theoretical foundations, showcase widely used clinical approaches, and explore challenging and timely professional issues. The book presents vivid case illustrations and synthesizes the play therapy research base. Chapters on specific populations (such as neurodivergent children, culturally diverse children, adolescents) and clinical problems (such as trauma, disrupted attachment, anxiety) provide engaging course content and the knowledge therapists need to tailor interventions effectively.
