The author communicates a rich repertoire of knowledge in the field of JPT and this is translated through the use of experiential applications which navigate the reader in a narrative style or writing.

The field of Play Therapy is indebted to Dr. Green because, for the first time, we have a book that explicates Jungian Play Therapy with children and adolescents. This clear and comprehensive Handbook is a must read for all who are interested in the Jungian Analytical Approach. Highly recommended!

Aimed at mental health professionals seeking to incorporate principles and techniques of Jungian thought, this accessible handbook combines convincing clinical examples of children’s responses in Jungian play therapy with historical and theoretical exposition.

A most thoughtful book of child psychotherapy applying Jungian concepts, including sandplay. Dr. Green helps therapists understand children's interior life through symbols. His method and emphasis on relationship, counter to the modern-day technological 'fix it' mentality, leads to soulful healing: basic human connection and recognition of the sacred in our lives.

I dearly treasure such a rare and refreshing book written by a depth therapist who values the child as a whole person, not simply a cluster of symptoms to eliminate. The Jungian approach as masterfully explained by Green is compelling in its profound respect for the dignity of a child, and it's reverence for the healing resources within a person that can activated through  a sensitive, empathic healer interacting with a child.
