CHILD-CENTERED PLAY THERAPY DVD

Description
Child-Centered Play Therapy (CCPT) is a very effective and frequently used form of play therapy in its own right and serves as the foundation of Filial Therapy. Furthermore, the specific skills of CCPT are valuable when using more directive forms of play therapy. On this 3-hour tape, Dr. VanFleet provides an overview of CCPT: rationale, goals, toy selection, specific play session skills and methods, recognition of play themes, interpretation, and special issues. The video includes footage of an entire child-centered play session to illustrate concepts and methods. The video is accompanied by this training manual.
