Reviews"Uniting an array of practitioners from the field, this publication provides a fresh, contemporary perspective on providing play therapy and counseling adolescents in the real world. The in-depth, practical content includes case examples, theory, sample case notes, and discussion questions. Including culture and diversity in each chapter fills a void in the play therapy literature. This publication will be an excellent addition to the mental health professional's and the play therapist's library." --Sueann G. Kenney-Noziska, MSW, LCSW, RPT-S, Play Therapy Corner, Las Cruces, New Mexico "It's essential for play therapists to keep themselves updated with the latest advancements in their field, particularly in the post-pandemic era. Thankfully, editors Baggerly and Drewes have provided a learning approach at the nexus of cultural humility, diversity, transtheoretical perspectives, and ethical inquiry. Contributing authors use case studies to demonstrate important steps in the play therapy process, from case conceptualization, treatment goal formulation, and theory-driven strategies, to session notes. What's more, each chapter concludes with thought-provoking discussion questions and extended resources to promote self and group reflexivity. What an important resource to remind us to never stop growing!" --Mary Anne Peabody, EdD, LCSW, RPT-S, University of Southern Maine "This volume does not shy away from complex and multi-layered mental health issues when working with children and adolescents through various play therapy modalities. Throughout, the chapters provide examples and guidance of how to conceptualise presenting problems within theoretical frameworks, and operationalize treatment with honour and respect for the client. Baggerly and Drewes are passionate that play therapy be available for children and adolescents from all backgrounds (regardless of race, sexual orientation, culture, socioeconomic, or immigration status), and that a diversity of clients are worthy of our respect and unconditional positive regard." --Karen Stagnitti, PhD, BOccThy, GCHE, emeritus professor, Deakin University, Australia "This is an important addition to the child and adolescent psychotherapy literature. Drs. Baggerly and Drewes, already published experts and practitioners on the topic, have gathered recognized authorities on a wide variety of approaches to child and adolescent work. This should be a foundational resource for both academics and therapists who work with this population." --Daniel Sweeney, PhD, George Fox University, It's essential for play therapists to keep themselves updated with the latest advancements in their field, particularly in the post-pandemic era.

Mental health professionals will find this resource a handy, modern guide and reference to better support diverse children and adolescents in their practice., Practicing counselors, psychologists, social workers, and graduate students emerging into mental health professions are often faced with complex cases that do not conform neatly to theoretical textbooks.
