5.0 out of 5 stars Levinson is the "father" of modern AAT and its many uses., November 10, 1998

tigergal1@hotmail.com (Denton, TX) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Pet-Oriented Child Psychotherapy (Hardcover)

As a student learning to become a counselor, I was very impressed with the writing and case studies that Dr. Levinson uses in his writings. It is hard to find good research that lets the professional counselor/student learn more about using AAT with their clients. The reading was on a professional level. yet not so technical that you lose the insight Levinson shows in his theory of using pets in therapy.
