Full Description
A Clear, Unified Guide to Integrating Play Therapy Theory and Practice
Ideal for professors, supervisors, trainers, and practicing play therapists, this book offers an accessible, up-to-date synthesis of the Therapeutic Powers of Play across seminal theoretical approaches. Each chapter—written by the co-editors and leading experts—uses the same case study to show exactly how a given theory conceptualizes the child and incorporates the therapeutic powers of play into treatment.
With its focused structure and practical comparisons, this book provides a unique, side-by-side look at how different theories understand and apply play's healing mechanisms. It delivers the essentials: clear foundations, major theoretical frameworks, and practical guidance for integrating the Therapeutic Powers of Play in real clinical work.
A timely, much-needed resource, this book deepens understanding, strengthens clinical decision-making, and brings clarity to the art and science of play therapy.
