About this book

Animal-Assisted Counseling and Psychotherapy: A Clinician's Guide is an essential resource for clinical mental health professionals who are considering integrating animals into their work. This unique text provides in-depth information and examples of how to provide treatment with real clients, describing hundreds of interventions, while also addressing essential legal and ethical issues. Written with compassion and consideration for both animals and humans, Animal-Assisted Counseling and Psychotherapy (AACP) explores working with varied and unique therapy animals, the application of training skills, and how animals can be powerfully incorporated into treatment with children, teenagers, adults, couples, and families. A thorough reference on integrating animals into professional practice, this book gives clinicians the tools to spark their creativity as they embark on the amazing journey of AACP.
