Jungian Counseling and Play Therapy is a textbook for graduate-level counseling students and supervisees. It is both an introduction to Jung’s theory and a practical guide to Jungian-informed practice.

Readers journey through the development of the mental health crisis of the digital age (which Jung foresaw) and are presented with solutions he suggested that are still being met with resistance, despite compelling facts. This book not only advocates for a more widespread integration of Jungian ideas into clinical practice, but for greater acknowledgement of the integrity, creativity, and intersecting identities of clients, professional counselors, and play therapists. Integrating historical theory with contemporary research, this book helps students to weave creative techniques into their online and in-person clinical work.

This is an ideal text for a psychodynamic theory, or methods class, or to support counseling students and supervisors becoming interested in, or familiar with, the work of Carl Jung.
