"This book touched my heart. It reminded me that, alongside the child or adolescent who suffers, there are siblings who also carry silences and wounds that deserve to be seen. The editors and contributors illustrate their immense sensitivity and deep commitment to children, adolescents, and their families, offering them a place, a voice, and a safe space. This is a work that illuminates family resilience and demonstrates how compassionate support can bring transformations. It leaves a lasting mark on the reader and reaffirms the human and professional help that clinicians can provide to all family members."Jorge Villar Miguélez is a clinical psychologist in Puebla, Mexico, specializing in child and adolescent neurodevelopment and positive parenting"This book provides clear and helpful suggestions for appreciating and including siblings in psychotherapeutic assessments and clinical work with children. Siblings should be, as the authors make clear, an essential part of any family’s healing and recovery when there is a crisis, illness, or dysfunction in the family."Monica McGoldrick, MSW, holds an honorary PhD and is the former director of the Multicultural Family Institute in Highland Park, New Jersey"Play Therapy with Siblings repositions siblings as essential participants in family healing. For those of us who train the next generation of couple and family therapists, this book is an invaluable resource. It bridges the worlds of family systems theory, attachment, trauma-informed practice, and expressive therapy in ways that are accessible to emerging clinicians without ever talking down to experienced ones. This book will help therapists notice the siblings sitting just outside the therapy room door and finally invite them in!"Eli A. Karam, PhD, LMFT, is a full professor in the couple and family therapy program at the University of Louisville, winner of the AAMFT Training and Supervision Award, and the host and co-executive producer of The AAMFT Podcast"This book is a much needed and refreshing contribution to the field of play therapy, offering a nuanced and deeply inclusive approach to sibling work that is often overlooked in clinical literature. The integration of practical, ready-to-use handouts and interventions makes this text not only insightful but immediately applicable for clinicians seeking to expand their work with diverse families. This is an essential resource for play therapists, educators, and mental health professionals who are committed to culturally responsive, socially just, and family-centered practice."April Duncan, DSW, LCSW, RPT-S is the founder and CEO of BMH Connect in Los Angeles, California
