Full Description
This expert guide provides 50 essential tools and activities to use in practice with children and young people who have experienced trauma.
From bubbles, balloons, and blocks to ghosts, monsters, and squiggles, this book offers a wealth of activities that help children to express their feelings and experiences while feeling safe and supported. Case studies demonstrate how each activity can be easily incorporated into daily interactions during social work practice, and clear explanations of the theory provide context for how they work.
Developed from decades of hands-on experience supporting children after trauma, this book demonstrates ways to sensitively discuss children's histories. This can lead into discussing the way their experiences influence their behaviour, and help them to form healthy attachments for the future.
