Handbook of Play Therapy:

|
In the past twenty-five years, the practice of play therapy has
increased exponentially in America and throughout the world. This
handbook brings together an international group of scholars and therapists
to address a wide variety of topics relevant to the rapidly expanding
field of play therapy. The primary goal of the handbook is to provide
play therapists with practical information they can put into immediate
use in their clinical work with children and adolescents. Thus the
focus is on advances in assessment, theory, research, and practice
that have universal appeal, rather than on adaptations of play therapy
to specific cultures. Play therapists and students from diverse cultures,
professional disciplines, and theoretical orientations will find
this book to be a comprehensive resource for keeping abreast of innovations
in the field. Please join us in this 9 unit course. |
