Product Description

Review

"This book is pervaded by a sense of hope and an overriding belief in the 'healing power of play.' I was moved by the case examples and by McMahon's sense of compassion and empathy for the children whose stories are recorded in this book. I would highly recommend it to anyone considering play therapy as a career or to those already practicing." - Jackie Townsend, Counselling Children and Young People, September 2009

praise for the first edition:

"…essential reading for all those who purport to practice play therapy."British Journal of Occupational Therapy

"A Handbook like this is an excellent idea for other workers who want to help disturbed children but don’t know where to start." Nicholas Tucker, The Times Educational Supplement
