An updated take on a fundamental decision-making framework, this practical guide explores the dimensions of play therapy and how they apply to today's practitioner. In-depth case studies illustrate the interplay between theory and practice, demonstrating an integrative case conceptualization approach. Scales have been updated to reflect current best practice and developments in the field, and combine with the core decision-making framework for a deeper, expanded use of the model. New chapters delve into parent work and case conceptualization utilizing observational and self-reflective forms. Downloadable video content brings the text to life, including a new video illustrating the essentials of consultation with parents.
The interface between practitioner and client also takes centre stage. New sections on self-reflection and cultural sensitivity guide you through ways to foster a welcoming, compassionate environment throughout your practice.
Whether you're a seasoned play therapist or just starting out, this fresh take on the dimensions of play therapy will foster self-reflection of the who, what, when, why, and how of play therapy.

What a delight to see an updated edition of this comprehensive and useful book! Lorri and Ken continue to share their experience and the development of their model. The PTDM provides us with a thoughtful, structured method to understand the intricacies and depth of the play therapy process. Perhaps as important, it allows us to look to understand ourselves as play therapists and the way we interact and engage with our clients. This is an excellent book to assist play therapists of all levels of experience to continue our own development!
