Georgia DeGangi, PhD, OTR, FAOTA, is a clinical psychologist and an occupational therapist in private practice at ITS (Integrated Therapy Services) for Children and Families, Inc., in Kensington, MD. She is the co-author of Effective Parenting for the Hard-to-Manage Child and has over 25 years of experience working with infants, children, and their families. Marc Nemiroff, PhD, is co-chair of the Infant/Young Child Mental Health Training Program at the Washington School of Psychiatry in Washington, D.C. In his private practice, he specializes in the treatment of pre-school and early elementary grade children.

Letter writing has been a key practice in narrative therapy as a tool in extending the conversation. DeGangi and Nemiroff extend this practice into new and creative territories. Kids’ Club Letters offer clinicians practical and youth-centered approaches to group therapy. I have benefitted from the ideas offered by the authors, and I encourage others to reap the benefits by reading this ground-breaking book. -David Nylund, LCSW, PhD, Associate Professor of Social Work, Sacramento State University; Clinical Director, River Rock CounselingIn this very interesting book, the authors provide a testament to the powers of creativity and therapeutic distance in fostering a safe haven in which young people can process a range of issues. From the letters themselves, to the engaging clinical discussion, to the suggestions for activities, readers of all levels of experience will find something of value to enhance their understanding and practice of group psychotherapy. -Craig Haen, MA, RDT, CGP, LCAT, co-editor of Clinical Applications of Drama Therapy in Child and Adolescent Treatment"This book was very rich in demonstrating the use of narrative examples, group dialogues, and therapists' analyses of their choice and implementation of interventions. The reader will get a clear sense of how this group intervention looks, sounds, and feels to the authors in particular. Consequently, it made for interesting reading."- Alison Hahn Johnson, MSSW, LCSW, LMFT, ACSW in Social Work With Groups, Vol. 33, Issue 4
