What People Are Saying

"Reading David Crenshaw's new book is an evocative experience that elicits feelings of sadness, anger, despair, surprise, excitement, hope and pure joy. David demonstrates the integrative approach in his book that he advocates in his work: A true anchoring of technique in theory. He more than meets the challenge of contemporary clinicians of substantiating their approaches with a thorough understanding of the available science. The end result is a masterful blend of a solid foundation that serves as a springboard for lovely, spirited, and purposeful leaps of creativity. I highly recommend this informative, moving, and immediately useful book."--(Eliana Gil, Ph.D., Multicultural Clinical Center, Springfield, VA; author of Healing Power of Play and Family Play Therapy)

What People Are Saying

"Evocative Strategies in Child and Adolescent Psychotherapy clearly deserves to be in every library of all clinicians working with children and adolescents. David Crenshaw's clinical use of metaphor, storytelling, art, poetry, role playing, drama and rituals is nothing short of masterful. This book is a ground-breaking contribution to the field and will continue to nourish those who read it and be gifted by the inherent teachings for years to come."--(Joyce C. Mills, Ph.D., LMFT, RPT-S, IBECPT, author of Reconnecting to the Magic of Life)
