Rasmussen, Lucinda A.; Cunningham, Carolyn – Journal of Child Sexual Abuse, 1995
Reviews the rationale for both nondirective and focused approaches to play therapy, and discusses why nondirective therapy alone may be ineffective in treating sexually abused and abuse-reactive children. A prescriptive approach is proposed that combines the rapport-building component of nondirective play therapy with focused techniques. (JPS)
