A Child's Eye View: Gestalt Therapy with Children, Adolescents and Their Families

A Child's Eye View is so well written it deserves two readings - the first to enjoy the author's ability to tell a story full of the interest and excitement that can be found working with developing youth. She shares her own doubts and mistakes as touchstones for learning while letting her wit and self deprecation sparkle through the pages. A second reading will allow you to focus on the wealth of material here for the child and adolescent therapist - material that includes insights into troubled children and their families coupled with specific approaches and techniques for the helping them cope with the diverse variety of problems facing them. It belongs on your bookshelf where you can view it as a trusted colleague - there to be consulted when you find yourself confronted by a therapeutic challenge and could use some advice and counsel. - Joe Wysong, Founder & Editor, The Gestalt Journal
