This book is an excellent example of Child-Centered Play Therapy, also known as non-directive play therapy. The author is an expert in this field. I highly recommend this book for students learning the technique, parents who seek to understand the process of play therapy and anyone who is interested in child developement and the effects of environment on mental health.
