Solution-Focused Play Therapy is an essential text that blends the process of play therapy with solution-focused therapy. With a focus on child strengths and resources this book identifies key concepts and principles in solution-focused play therapy (SFPT). The author provides neurobiological and developmental support for SFPT and guidance on how practitioners can transition from using a non-directive approach to a more directive and activity-based approach based on the developmental needs of the child. Chapters describe the 12 basic skills needed for employing this approach with children of all ages and their families. Harnessing a strengths-oriented approach the author presents expressive ways to use key SFPT techniques including the miracle question scaling finding exceptions and end-of-session feedback. Clinicians will come away from the book with a suite of interventions strategies handouts and forms that can be employed with children of all ages and their families from strength-based assessment and treatment planning to the final celebration session. |Solution-Focused Play Therapy A Strengths-Based Clinical Approach to Play Therapy | Mental Health
