This is an easy-to-use reference to the most effective play therapy techniques and their substantiated results. Play therapy is not an approach based on guess, trial and error, or whims of the therapist at the moment. It is a well-thought-out, philosophically conceived, developmentally based, and research-supported method of helping children cope with and overcome the problems they experience in the process of living their lives. Concise digests of play therapy procedures explore the most difficult, as well as the most common problems encountered by play therapists. These digests cover play therapy approaches based on a variety of theoretical positions for dealing with a broad range of specific problems. Because they often do not have access to substantiated results, play therapists sometimes doubt themselves and the effectiveness of their work. This book, an invaluable resource, puts an end to such questioning.

Industry Reviews

A gold mine of useful information. This book will be a practice-saver for play therapists in private practice and agencies that must justify their interventions to insurance providers and managed health care companies. The authors suggest possible DSM-IV diagnoses and both case study and empirical support for play therapy as the treatment of choice with a wide range of presenting problems--exactly the kind of information requested by most insurance companies and other third-party payers.--Terry Kottman
