Child-Centered Play Therapy de Rise VanFleet

Child-Centered Play Therapy

Autor Rise VanFleet, Andrea E. Sywulak, Cynthia Caparosa Sniscak
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 8 noi 2010

Pregătirea pentru examenul de certificare în terapia prin joc sau pentru obținerea dreptului de liberă practică în psihologie clinică necesită o fundamentare teoretică riguroasă dublată de protocoale clinice clare. În volumul Child-Centered Play Therapy, semnat de Rise VanFleet, Andrea E. Sywulak și Cynthia Caparosa Sniscak, remarcăm o rigoare metodologică esențială pentru orice specialist care lucrează cu populația infantilă. Suntem de părere că această lucrare reușește să recupereze esența modelului non-directiv, oferind un cadru în care copilul este lăsat să preia inițiativa în rezolvarea propriilor dificultăți.

Structura volumului este una progresivă, pornind de la fundamentele istorice și teoretice ale CCPT (Child-Centered Play Therapy), către logistica efectivă a camerei de joacă și interpretarea temelor de joc. Pe linia clinică a volumului A Practical Handbook for Building the Play Therapy Relationship, dar cu accent pe rigoarea intervențiilor și gestionarea comportamentelor dificile, autorii detaliază cele patru abilități de bază necesare terapeutului. Putem afirma că un punct forte al acestei ediții este secțiunea dedicată terapiei filiale, care integrează familia în procesul de vindecare, depășind simpla intervenție individuală.

În contextul operei lui Rise VanFleet, dacă în The Human Half of Dog Training autoarea explora mecanismele comportamentale umane în contexte non-clinice, în Child-Centered Play Therapy ea își rafinează abordarea empatică și sistemică. Cartea nu se limitează la teorie, ci oferă studii de caz bogate care ilustrează modul în care principiile se aplică în situații de traumă, anxietate sau probleme de atașament, incluzând și o analiză a cercetărilor contemporane care susțin eficacitatea metodei.

Highly practical, instructive, and authoritative, this book vividly describes how to conduct child-centered play therapy. The authors are master clinicians who explain core therapeutic principles and techniques, using rich case material to illustrate treatment of a wide range of difficulties.

Recenzii

"This is one of those rare books that combine rich theoretical and contextual frameworks with clear and relevant practice examples. At a time when the term 'child-centered play therapy' is often loosely applied or misunderstood, this book could not be more timely. The authors take CCPT back to its fundamental principles, speaking with an authoritative but also warmly empathic voice. Chapters are illustrated with helpful case material and specific suggestions for therapeutic 'dos and don'ts.' The book will be invaluable as a refresher for experienced play therapists or as a starting point for students and others just getting acquainted with the principles of nondirective play. It should be required reading in any introductory play therapy or child psychotherapy course."--Geraldine Thomas MSc, Filial/Play Therapist and Instructor, Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services,London, UK

"A practical guide for beginning and experienced child clinicians. This book is unique in the depth of its coverage of the essential ingredients of child-centered play therapy, from how to set up a therapy room to recognizing and interpreting play themes and setting limits with child clients. The authors seamlessly share their wealth of knowledge and expertise, offering a generous mix of applications and rich case studies. They tackle such important issues as the use of touch in therapy, cultural considerations, and research evidence for play therapy. This well-rounded and easy-to-read work is a 'must have.'"--Athena A. Drewes, PsyD, RPT-S, Director of Clinical Training, Astor Services for Children and Families, Poughkeepsie, New York

"Finally, a book that teaches and illustrates the essential 'how-to' details of child-centered play therapy (CCPT)! The approach is presented in such a comprehensive, explicit format that whether you are a beginning play therapist or an experienced practitioner or professor, the book has tremendous value. Drawing on their vast knowledge of the field, the authors address the importance of the relationship, how to work with parents, and practical applications for children with a wide variety of psychological difficulties. Using detailed case studies, they show how CCPT can enhance anyone's play therapy style. This book is a 'must' for teaching CCPT and should be on the shelves of all therapists interested in using play to help children heal."--Heidi Gerard Kaduson, PhD, RPT-S, Director, The Play Therapy Training Institute, Inc., Hightstown, New Jersey

"This book provides excellent explanations of the critical skills that therapists need to practice child-centered play therapy. It presents a well-conceptualized discussion of common themes that children present in play therapy, and strategies for understanding and utilizing these in the treatment process. It also offers a thorough discussion of the application of child-centered play therapy to a variety of common problems, as well as how to handle difficult behaviors in session. Both graduate students and seasoned play therapists will find this book significantly expands the way they think about one of the most widely practiced forms of play therapy."--Kevin O'Connor, PhD, RPT-S, Distinguished Professor, California School of Professional Psychology at Alliant International University
-Offers a comprehensive introduction into the world of child-centered play therapy, its efficacy, and application. The text makes several strong contributions to the practice of CCPT....Appropriate for the novice play therapist.

The authors are all experienced with CCPT....Chapters on touch and cultural considerations in the use of CCPT are especially interesting. Highly recommended. Upper-division graduates through faculty and professionals.
--Choice, 5/3/2011ƒƒ
VanFleet, Sywulak, and Sniscak bring with them perspectives developed over many years of experience in working with children and families with complex needs....The authors speak collectively with an authoritative but also warmly empathic voice....Child-Centered Play Therapy provides a rich and valuable addition to the existing literature on non-directive play and will be a much welcomed book in that it combines rich theoretical and contextual frameworks along with clear and relevant practice examples to address a wide range of difficulties and in a variety of settings. In these days when the notion of child-centred practice has become a loosely applied and often misunderstood term the strength of this book lies in its synthesis of clear practice principles, well illustrated case material, and specific suggestions for dos and donts in child-centred therapy. For professionals who need to remind themselves of fundamental tenets on which their practice is based and want to remain well grounded in delivering evidence-based therapy, this book will be handy as a refresher for their skills....It should be required reading, alongside other acknowledged texts, in any introductory play therapy and child psychotherapy course.
