I noticed changes in my child’s confidence and emotional awareness after just a few sessions. The guidance is clear and easy to follow, even if you're totally new to this. Highly recommend it!

My sisters kids are flourishing now
I am very close to my sister, and she is struggling with her twins, who were preemies and a bit behind their peers in class. I love researching stuff and found this audiobook on play therapy. After listening to this amazing book, I sent it to my sister, who is over the moon. She started using the strategies in the book and said the twins are already showing improvement with their confidence and have way fewer outbursts. I am sure this is not the fix-all for kids having issues but another tool in the toolbox that I feel is making a difference for my niece and nephew.

Children are crucial
This audiobook brought attention to my needs on how important it is to make your children happy and enjoyable. Of course, we as parents need to feel confident and never feel discouraged about spending time with our kids. Therapeutic goals can meet each child’s needs and learn to identify emotions depending on the child's age. The children need growth and resilience as well as building using culturally diverse activities that address their unique needs. I like the audiobook and the narrator’s ideas of therapy.
