Editorial Reviews
Review
"It really gives the tools needed to conduct good play therapy with abused children....It is meant to focus on the treatment of abused children. The author has done that beautifully by giving clinical examples....The examples she has chosen are important, as most clinicians working with abused children will encounter these clinical scenarios sooner or later....This book should be read by almost everybody who is treating abused children....It is easy to read and is written in very simple flowing language." --Canadian Child Psychiatry Review "The case illustrations are well worth reading. Health care professionals, teachers, beginning child protective services workers and other professionals working with children and their families would be introduced to to the emotional, psychological, and behavioral consequences of child maltreatment and the individual play therapy process. With increased awareness of the 'healing power of play,' appropriate referral to play therapists and knowledgeable participation on interdisciplinary and interagency teams would be enhanced." --Social Work in Health Care "This book has utility for professionals of all disciplines who encounter children who have been hurt by others." --Families in Society "Both the novice child therapist and experienced clinician will learn abundantly from Dr. Gil's instruction about effective intervention with even the most severely neglected and abused children." --Treating Abuse Today -- Review
