Infos

Through the stories of individual children, this book illuminates the process of creative, play-based child psychotherapy. Each chapter focuses on a specific issue that brings a child or a young person to the therapy room and explores the use and meaning of particular objects and 'object games'. These insightful and dynamic stories offer readers a profound understanding of the healing power of play in the context of child psychotherapy.
