Welcome To Therapy is a perfect book to read to children who are beginning in therapy. Often children do not know what to expect when they enter the therapist's office and feel fearful to see ""the doctor."" However, for children, therapy can be a fun and rewarding experience, particularly when they are working with a play therapist. Children communicate and learn through play and cannot sit and talk the way adults do in a therapist's office. When they are allowed to express themselves using the play therapist's tools, they are often able to find more resolution and not have to worry about saying or doing the wrong thing. Welcome To Therapy explains in very simple and clear words the sometimes confusing and complicated process of child therapy and its benefits. It is warmly written, a must have tool for clinicians who work with young and latency aged children. - Virginia Agcayab, MFT, therapist and site coordinator, Chadwick Center Children's Hospital, San Diego Knowing that there is a book of this subject, takes the pressure off of me having to explain what it is all about in case either one of my boys has to enter therapy. The book's wording and illustrations are very soothing to a child who might be going into therapy. I enjoyed reading it very much. - Maribel Valles, mother of Michael (9) and Mathew (4) A wonderfully written children's book that not only prepares children for the therapy experience, but also engages them in a rhyme pattern that will add to the delight of the lesson. - Eileen Carole, editor of Pisces Publishing and director of The Writers' Corner | Welcome To Therapy by Cheryll Putt, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
