Doing Play Therapy: From Building the Relationship to Facilitating Change de Terry Kottman

Doing Play Therapy: From Building the Relationship to Facilitating Change: Creative Arts and Play Therapy

Autor Terry Kottman, Kristin K. Meany-Walen
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 11 iul 2018

Recomandăm Doing Play Therapy ca o resursă fundamentală pentru studenții la psihologie, rezidenții în psihiatrie infantilă și psihoterapeuții aflați în formare care doresc să utilizeze jocul ca instrument clinic principal. Scrisă de Terry Kottman și Kristin K. Meany-Walen, lucrarea se distinge printr-o abordare clinică precisă, ghidând cititorul de la stabilirea alianței terapeutice până la încheierea procesului de intervenție. Găsim în această carte o structură inovatoare: capitolele dense, axate pe strategii și dinamici intrapersonale, sunt alternate cu „Interludii” scurte, menite să încurajeze reflexia personală și prezența terapeutică. Pe linia clinică a volumului A Practical Handbook for Building the Play Therapy Relationship de Maria A. Giordano, dar cu un accent pronunțat pe trecerea de la teorie la practica specifică și pe dezvoltarea unui stil propriu, acest manual oferă pași concreți pentru explorarea problemelor emoționale și comportamentale. Merită menționat că autorii nu se limitează la lucrul cu copilul, ci extind cadrul terapeutic către colaborarea sistemică cu familia și mediul școlar. În contextul operei lui Terry Kottman, această lucrare rafinează conceptele explorate în Play Therapy in Action, oferind o metodologie mai structurată și accesibilă. Volumul include, de asemenea, un capitol esențial de „troubleshooting” pentru gestionarea situațiilor provocatoare în camera de joacă, completat de anexe valoroase care listează resurse teoretice și bibliografie terapeutică pentru copii.

Recenzii

"I wish this text had been available when I was taking play therapy courses, and I am deeply grateful for it now that I am teaching them! The authors clearly explain theory and techniques and show the reader how to develop a personal style that flows naturally from a solid theoretical base. Their informal writing style makes complex ideas accessible, and the case studies are relevant and applicable. The book will give play therapy students a solid grasp of practice and will help seasoned professionals sharpen their skills and deepen their understanding. I plan to use this text both personally and in my classes."--Jeffrey S. Ashby, PhD, ABPP, RPT-S, Department of Counseling and Psychological Services, Georgia State University

"A fresh, relevant guide to play therapy that speaks to play therapists-in-training and has hidden gems for those of us with more experience. This volume broadens the traditional view of play therapy to encompass multiple modalities, and to include adolescents and adults as well as children. Unique interludes throughout the book help the reader become more reflective and integrate personal and professional growth. Kottman and Meany-Walen tackle some of the tougher questions in play therapy regarding interpretation, questioning, and insight, among many other complicated issues. The book is filled with activities and resources to help play therapists at any level improve their everyday practice."--Dee C. Ray, PhD, LPC-S, NCC, RPT-S, Director, Center for Play Therapy, and Professor, Counseling Program, University of North Texas

"This is a unique and needed addition to the play therapy literature--Kottman and Meany-Walen have filled a gap like only they could! The text presents a cross-theoretical, practical perspective, and manages to offer techniques based on theory (no easy task). It should be used for all Introduction to Play Therapy classes and should be in the libraries of all play therapy graduate students, as well as seasoned practitioners."--Daniel S. Sweeney, PhD, LMFT, LPC, RPT-S, Professor of Counseling and Director, Northwest Center for Play Therapy Studies, George Fox University
-Provides beginning, intermediate, and seasoned play therapists alike with a unique opportunity to consider various play therapy theories through the use of thoughtful questions. Kottman and Meany-Walen do not just connect with readers as authors, they also connect with them as teachers. Navigating the pages of the book, readers can solidify their theoretical and clinical perspectives and learn enough about alternative theories and approaches to speak intelligently about the clinical decisions play therapists make….There is something special about a book that allows its readers to feel both connected to--and supported by--the authors….Ultimately, the book provides readers with a comprehensive foundation for play therapy.--American Journal of Play, 10/1/2018
