Editorial Reviews for Play Therapy: The Art of the Relationship
|
Play is to the child what verbalization is to the adult-it is a medium for expressing feelings, exploring relationships, describing experiences and disclosing wishes. Revised and updated, this second edition of the award-winning Play Therapy: The Art of the Relationship provides comprehensive and detailed information for creating therapeutic relationships with children and facilitating the play therapy process. Guidelines, transcripts and case examples are provided for governing sensitive issues at every stage of the therapeutic process, from the first meeting to the end of the relationship.

Summary: Interesting
Comment: I needed this book for class. It is very informative and answers many questions about the field of Play Therapy. It is by a well-known author, so you can consider any of his books a good choice to purchase.
Customer Rating: 
Summary: A more than sufficient survey of the techniques of therapeutic play
Comment: Much like any other piece of literature the Landreth text tends to hold a bias. Although it adequately accounts for the basic assumptions of other approaches to play therapy this particular text tends to err on the side of the Client-Centered approach. So, if you're not keen on Axline and, to a lesser extend, Rogers, this text may not be for you.

Summary: Awesome!
Comment: This textbook gives an excellent overview of client-centered play therapy as well as detailed instructions on how to engage in play therapy, set up a play room, work with families etc. The best textbook I have seen on the topic!

Summary: Good, but requires a huge buy-in on theory
Comment: I took a course from Dr. Landreth in the 1980s, and while I respect his perspective on child-centered play therapy, it seems a bit rigid and dogmatic. This book describes his theoretical perspective on working with children -- ONE perspective, which is helpful in many cases, but definitely not for everyone. In working with a diverse group of families and children, I've found the perspectives and techniques outlined in this book to have limited applicability. Landreth would say that's the therapist's fault -- not doing the approach "right." But I think it helps to look at the ideas in this book as ONE approach of many, and to work from the approach that fits you and your families best.
