The book begins with a variety of engagement and assessment activities providing clinicians with strategies to build therapeutic rapport and diagnostic tools to assist in treatment planning.

There are also techniques to deal with challenging client behavior. Each activity is described within a framework that recommends age suitability, preferred treatment modality, and appropriate stage of treatment. Materials needed to complete the activity are outlined. Several activities include worksheets that may be reproduced for use with clients. The book includes detailed instructions for all activities and a discussion section that further clarifies application and process. Activities are geared to 4-16 year-olds.
