Twenty-six American academics and practitioners contribute 14 chapters discussing current play interventions for preventing and resolving the most common psychological disorders of preschool children, in a handbook for child therapy students and practitioners; other professionals in psychology, psychiatry, counseling, social work, and occupational therapy; teachers; parents; and others concerned with improving young children's mental health. Coverage includes clinical and developmental issues involved in conducting psychotherapy with young children; play-based strategies to prevent emerging problems from escalating; play interventions for internalizing disorders, such as fears and anxieties, posttraumatic stress, and childhood grief; effective play approaches for disruptive disorders, such as oppositional-defiant behaviors; and interventions for children with significant developmental delays, including children on the autism spectrum.
