A Neurobiological Approach for Integrating Intensity
21 December 2018
Description
Offers play therapists practical ways of handling a pervasive issue with intense and aggressive play by their clients.
This book offers a way to work with aggressive play that allows children to learn how to integrate the intensity they are experiencing from their thoughts, emotions and sensations while simultaneously supporting regulation in the therapist’s nervous system. These will help therapists understand the neurobiological processes that lead kids to dysregulation and help them facilitate emotional healing in their clients.
Reviews
"I thought the book was an excellent introduction to working therapeutically with aggression in play therapy. It may also be helpful to signpost to social workers and clinicians doing direct work particularly for the chapters on the Nervous System and Basics of Regulating." — BAPT Magazine
