Buy
Stories can play an important and potent role in therapy with children and adolescents--helping them develop the skills to cope with and survive a myriad of life situations. In many cases, stories provide the most effective means of communicating what kids and teens might not want to discuss directly.

101 Healing Stories for Kids and Teens provides straightforward advice on using storytelling and metaphors in a variety of therapeutic settings. Ideal for all who work with young people, this unique resource can be combined with other inventive and evidence-based techniques such as play, art, music, and drama therapies as well as solution focused, hypnotic, and cognitive-behavioral approaches.

Innovative chapters include:

  • Guidance for effective storytelling
  • Using metaphors effectively
  • Where to get ideas for healing stories
