Assessment and Treatment Activities for Children, Adolescents and Families Volume Three: Practitioners Share Their Most Effective Techniques Paperback – September 7, 2011

As an intern, I am always searching for great interventions to use with my therapy kids. This book is great b/c Liana offers a lot of creative ideas. I love her interventions and some of them work very well with the kids.

This book is broken into six themed sections:Section One: Engagement and AssessmentSection Two: Feelings and ExpressionSection Three: Social SkillsSection Four: Coping and Problem-SolvingSection Five: Self-EsteemSection Six: TerminationEach activity in each themed sections follows this format:ThemeRecommended Age RangeTreatment Modality: ie, Individual, Family, GroupGoalsMaterialsDescriptionDiscussionAbout the AuthorThe activities are broken into easy lesson plan format. There are approximately 69 activities in the book. Each activity is about a one to two pages in length. If you enjoy doing outside of the box creative art or play therapy to work with your clients this book is for you.

Haven’t used this yet, but it arrived on time and appears to be as it was advertised.

Love this book, love the different aspect and new activities. Be aware though that you will need materials handy for a lot of these activists. Simple cheap materials which is great :)

I wish this wasn't the last volume. With the ever changing of Gen Z we in the Clinical Mental Health and School Counseling profession need additional lesson to help them reach their needs.

Awesome resource for clinicians working with clients of all ages! Great creative activities’

I use Liana Lowenstein books in my practice daily. She is a great play therapist and author. I highly recommend it to anyone working with children.

So many great ideas for families and /or individuals!
