Imagination, creativity, and play are the language of children. Astrid Wiesner is a systemic therapist who offers fascinating insights into her work with children and adolescents in her book. Often, it is the many small catastrophes that, when taken individually, may not leave lasting emotional scars, but collectively can have traumatic effects. Through role-playing, fairy tales, and drawings, the therapist sensitively accesses the sad souls of children and collaboratively develops playful solutions that reveal new paths for the entire family. Astrid Wiesner aims to encourage parents to be aware, to observe, and to trust in themselves and the wisdom of their children. In the appendix of the book, the alternative practitioner Ingrid Kern-Minckwitz and the osteopath Martina Scholz share case studies of their work.
