Play Therapy (eBook, ePUB)

The Art of the Relationship

Beschreibung

This is the latest edition of Garry Landreth's comprehensive text on creating therapeutic relationships with children through play.

This book details Child-Centered Play Therapy (CCPT), an evidence-based model, which stresses the importance of understanding the child's world. Professors who have taught a course based on the previous editions will be pleased to find the core message intact but updated with a comprehensive review of rigorous contemporary research demonstrating the strong evidence base for CCPT across cultural groups and presenting issues. Expanded to cover additional topics of interest, this new edition includes a model of the change process in CCPT and 13 new Rules of Thumb that help clarify the CCPT relationship, and discusses deeper issues in CCPT, such as recognizing emotional blocks in play therapy, being culturally responsive, discovering meaning when there seems to be no meaning, and more.

This new edition offers essential help to play therapists who respond to sensitive issues at every stage of the therapeutic process.

Rezensionen

"Substantially updated to include a wealth of new information, Garry draws on his vast experience and wisdom to expand on the healing power of the child-centered play therapy relationship. Fresh ideas and insights poignantly illustrated through personal stories and case examples both enlighten and touch the reader's heart. A must-read for all play therapists to expand their depth of practice, and for anyone committed to a deeper understanding of children and what they need in order to heal and reach their full potential."

"A subsequent edition that is a masterpiece! Previous editions of

Play Therapy have been such classics that it is difficult to imagine an improvement would be possible. However, this 4^th edition accomplishes it. There are so many impressive additions. This book is both familiar and new - something only Dr. Landreth could do. This is a foundational book in my classes and should be required for anyone looking to understand and practice play therapy."

"Dr. Landreth has done it again! He has gifted the child therapy community with an insightful, meaningful, and practical framework for Child-Centered Play Therapy. Building on his last three editions, Dr. Landreth offers new perspectives and reflections on processes within play therapy. This new edition brings the dynamics of play therapy alive through multiple cases and session transcripts that illustrate Dr. Landreth's teaching points. Every page led me to reflect upon the significance of play therapy in children's lives."
