Liana's material is super! It is so comprehensive in scope. There is something here for everyone! It is easy to use and adapt for any client. Liana's materials are user-friendly and client-friendly at the same time. I also found them to extremely clinically sound and helpful in my play therapy and CBT use!

I got three of these books by Liana Lowenstein and I find them very valuable in my therapy work with children and adolescents. I am a beginning therapist so I still rely heavily on resources like this to get the creative juices flowing. The only thing that is missing from this book, but present in the others, is a list in front that tells what the intervention is suitable for, suggested age range and treatment mode (individual, group or family).
