Description:


The mental health field has seen a significant shift in the past decade toward including a neuroscience perspective when designing clinical interventions. However, for many play therapists it has been challenging to apply this information in the context of play therapy. Here, Theresa Kestly teaches therapists how to understand the neurobiology of play experiences so the undeniable benefits of play therapy can be exploited to their fullest.

At last, clinical readers have a book that takes seriously the importance of play and brings a scientific eye to this most important aspect of life. Drawing on concepts of interpersonal neurobiology, the benefits of play interventions to achieve attunement, neural integration, healthy attachment, and the development of resilience and well-being become clear.

The book is organized into three parts. The first part lays a conceptual foundation for considering play in relation to the neurobiology of the developing brain and mind. The next part explores specific topics about play including the therapeutic playroom, the collaborative relationship between therapist and clients, storytelling, and mindfulness. The last part of the book asks questions about the state of play in our families, clinics, and schools. How did we get to a place where play has been so devalued, and what can we do about it? Now that we know how important play is across the lifespan from a scientific standpoint, what can we do to fully integrate it into our lives?

After reading this book, clinicians, teachers, and even parents will understand why play helps children (and adults) heal from painful experiences, whi

good/bad HP Chromebook 15" Intel N200, 8GB DDR5 RAM, 192GB Storage
Capacity: 64GB eMMC+128GB SD Card
As I just received this Chromebook this is my review. Likes: its much faster than my old Chromebook which is a Acer about 10 years old. I like the big screen vs my old 14". good color and definition. HATE:The lightly colored letters. It is near impossible to read in low light and even in medium light. I have already ordered new stick on letters to make it more visible. HP you should have done a better job than this. This really detracts from the enjoyment of using this Chromebook. It is terrible. I can't give it 5 stars because of this problem.I would have liked another port for plug ins like mouse or thumb drives. Otherwise I love it.

Excellent for the price!

So far so good. Considering I got it primarily for browsing and smaller tasks, it's worrying perfectly so far. Boots up very fast, runs very smooth, and so far I'm happy with the battery life. I do wish I had thought about making sure it had a keyboard light but that's still mostly not a problem for me. I also like how simple it was to set everything up and get it synced with my google account and phone.

Chromebooks are a great concept. They're laptops without the bloat.
