This unique book consists of a series of absorbing in-depth case studies of seven children and adolescents, all of whom have experienced varying forms of emotional problems and/or abuse. What links these otherwise independent children is that they all benefited from non-directive play therapy. Each chapter provides information about the child's background and a detailed account of the therapeutic process. Both practical and theoretical issues - often highly emotive and complex in nature - are raised clearly and pertinently for each case, as are personal and professional issues for the therapist. This illustrative material will therefore be central to the interests of the experienced practitioner, but likewise the theoretical discussions within each scenario will ensure it becomes equally invaluable to students and newly qualified pracitioners.
