In this upbeat, entertaining introduction to play therapy, Dr. Jennifer Baggerly (Counselor Education, University of South Florida) uses puppets to help communicate the rationale, principles, and basic skills of play therapy with children who have been traumatized. Each skill is demonstrated through video clips of play therapy sessions with culturally diverse children. Demonstrated skills include tracking play behavior, reflecting feelings, returning responsibility, encouragement, facilitating understanding, and setting therapeutic limits.
