This is the latest edition of Garry Landreth’s comprehensive text on creating therapeutic relationships with children through play. Play Therapy: The Art of the Relationship 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. Expanded to cover additional topics of interest, the new edition includes the dynamics and structure of supervision in play therapy, paradoxes in play therapy, models of the change process in child-centered play therapy, and more! The additions and changes to the fourth edition explain and enhance the concept of play therapy as a process of living out beliefs about children rather than applying techniques, methods or skills, enlarge the view of the play therapist as a person of commitment and passion and present children as being capable of much more than they seem to be. This audiobook is masterfully narrated by Scott Pollak. This audiobook was produced and published by Echo Point Books & Media, an independent bookseller in Brattleboro, Vermont. ©2024 Garry L.
