When Pixies Come Out to Play: A Play Therapy Primer
\n<\/em><\/strong>By Lois Carey
\n\u201cWhen the Pixies Come Out to Play: A Play Therapy Primer<\/i> is the work of a true master of the craft of sandplay therapy informed by Jungian theory and the pioneering work of Dora Kallf with whom Lois Carey studied. Woven into the exquisite \u00a0tapestry of this lovely book is history and theory of the method, rich case material told in a warm and moving voice which reflects the extraordinary empathy of this remarkable sandplay and play therapist . . . A wealth of information packed into a highly readable book that just like the author herself will be a cherished gift to us all for a long time to come.\u201d \u2014David A. Crenshaw, Ph.D., ABPP, RPT-S Clinical Director<\/p>\n

She is the author of numerous articles and several books.<\/p>\n

“The metaphor that comes to mind as I read this book is that of the aboriginal painting\u2014a large canvas of lots of varied sized and colored dots which represents a map of the territory. This book provides an extensive map of the territory, that is Play Therapy, Child Therapy and sand play as it applies to children, with a particular Jungian slant. I would recommend this to practitioners and students who can learn from its wisdom.” \u2014Aideen Taylor de Faoite, author of Narrative Play Therapy: Theory and Practice.<\/p>\n

“When Pixies Come Out to Play is a wonderful book for any clinician who uses creative mediums in their therapeutic work. It is a book that provides a back drop to understanding art therapy, play therapy and sandplay from a Jungian perspective. It provides a history and theoretical framework to create context and a lens to view the work through.” \u2014Majella Ryan, Biodynamic and Integrative Psychotherapist, Child Psychotherapist.<\/p>\n
