Description
Therapy with Children and Young People provides a comprehensive approach to child therapy in school settings. This integrative guide considers the influence of family, school, and community on development and attachment issues, offering a solid foundation in developmental theory. The authors explore the contextual and professional challenges of working in schools, including sharing sensitive information and communicating with parents and teachers. Practical activities and exercises are included to help apply theoretical knowledge to practice, such as using creative arts to engage young people through play, story, metaphor, and imagery. This book covers therapy with children from infancy to secondary school, making it an essential resource for those working therapeutically in schools.
