📚✨BOOK ANNOUNCEMENT TIME!✨📚

I’m beyond excited to share that I have chapters in both volumes of Transformative Expressions in Play Therapy: Working with LGBTQ+ Clients, a powerful two-part series that centers affirming, inclusive, and healing approaches in our clinical work.

🌈 Volume I: Foundations and Applications
📝 Co-authored with the incredible Kurt W. Oster, our chapter is titled: “Trauma-Informed Care for SOGIE Youth: Healing and Resilience in Play and Sandtray Therapies” We explore trauma, identity, and how expressive modalities like sandtray and play therapy can be life-affirming pathways to healing.

📖 Grab it here: https://a.co/d/ebqPIJa

🌈 Volume II: Seminal Theories and Models of Practice
📝 I wrote a chapter on: “Internal Family Systems with LGBTQ+ Clients in Therapy” IFS is a beautiful, inclusive model that invites every part of our clients and ourselves into the room. In this chapter, I dive into how it can be adapted for LGBTQ+ youth and adults in play-based spaces.

📖 Grab it here: https://a.co/d/5u6LKPo

These books are a must for clinicians, educators, and anyone passionate about affirming and transformative mental health care for LGBTQ+ clients.

Let’s keep doing the work that heals. Let’s keep making space for every part and every identity.
