Contemporary Play Therapy
Theory, Research, and Practice
|
|
Edited by Charles E. Schaefer and Heidi Gerard Kaduson
This highly practical book presents current developments in play therapy,
including innovative applications for particular
problems and populations. Contributors first discuss the latest ideas and
techniques emerging from object-relations,
experiential, dynamic, and narrative perspectives. Next, research evaluating
the effectiveness of play interventions is
reviewed in detail. The book's third and largest section demonstrates
creative approaches for helping children deal with a variety of adverse
circumstances: homelessness, family problems, sexual abuse, social
aggression, natural disasters, and more. A special chapter discusses
culturally competent practice with Mexican American children, one of the
nation's fastest-growing populations. Throughout, rich case illustrations
enhance the book's utility for clinicians.
