Very useful reference

I knew this book before purchasing-it is very useful in my practice with young children as a counseling intern. There is an explanation and case study for each of many modalities of play therapy. I bought it after borrowing the agency's copy for more than a month and realizing I didn't want to give it back because I referred to it so often. The clear description of each theory is also helpful and will be a good refresher as I approach the licensing exam.
