Storytelling and other activities for children in therapy

Storytelling can lead to successful therapeutic treatment with children confronting situations such as abuse or grief who may not be able to express their emotions directly.

Mental health practitioners treating children and adolescents will benefit from the "cookbook" format providing quick access to activities and instructions --Provided by publisher.
