This practical resource integrates family therapy theory with playful interventions and techniques to allow family therapists to successfully engage and include children in the session.Many therapists who are trained in family therapy lack training in child-centered play techniques. This book effectively bridges the gap between popular theories and models in family therapy and the practice of working with children in a family context. Showcasing playful therapy techniques across and within each of the most common models of a family therapy such as Experiential, Structural, and Narrative Therapy, and Psychodynamic and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), this book is accessible to a wide range of clinicians. Additionally, the author offers clear tangible interventions adaptable for both in-person and teletherapy sessions.This book is essential reading for practicing therapists, students in training, clinical supervisors, and anyone who works with children in a therapeutic capacity.

"This book provides answers to the most important question mental health professionals ask when learning how to work with children: How do I actually do it? With great clarity on the purpose and methods associated with a wide range of play therapy activities, this book truly integrates play into the therapeutic process. It treats play as a form of expression, a natural home for assessment, and an avenue for effective intervention. The creative exercises detailed in this book will be useful in any child therapist's toolkit."Benjamin E. Caldwell, PsyD, LMFT, Adjunct Professor at California State University, Northridge, USA"A Must-Read for Family Therapists! An essential resource for family therapists, Creative Play in Family Therapy offers practical strategies for seamlessly integrating creative play into traditional family therapy. The interventions are not only effective but also deeply engaging for children, making therapy sessions more productive and enjoyable. A game-changer in the field!"Diane Gehart, Ph.D., Founder and CEO, Therapy that Works Institute; Professor Emerita at California State University, Northridge, USA
