Description
Play in Family Therapy, Second Edition by Eliana Gil This revised edition of Play in Family Therapy brings together 20 years of clinical experience and ongoing development of an influential integrative approach. Eliana Gil provides a broad range of verbal and nonverbal strategies for engaging all family members, including those who may be ambivalent towards therapy. The book offers practical guidance on using various expressive techniques with children, adolescents, and their parents, such as puppets, storytelling, art making, the family play genogram, drama, and more. Photographs of client artwork are included to illustrate the effectiveness of these approaches. Recent advances in neuroscience support Gil's approach, providing a new perspective on creative interventions. New case material and a heightened focus on personal metaphors make this edition an essential resource for therapists seeking to integrate play therapy and family therapy techniques into their practice.
