Description:

You'll find this highly acclaimed board game as a useful tool in your therapy practice. It can be used for a wide variety of ages and may be invaluable in family sessions as well. The Talking, Feeling, & Doing Board Game evokes direct conversation and participants are eager to answer in order to accumulate chips.  

The first published therapeutic game by Richard A. Gardener, M.D., is still one of the most popular counseling tools used with children in therapeutic settings. A child's responses while playing the game will reveal the psychological issues that are most important to him or her. Three types of cards offer prompts that will engage the child and, through their responses, reveal directions for therapeutic intervention. Very useful for the practitioner using a CBT model.

This game is a good way to get both children and teenagers talking. You may want to preview the cards before using as a few threw me off and I would not use when counselling kids. otherwise a useful addition to play therapy toolbox

Finally have my own

I have been using a borrowed copy of this game with my K-6 students for years. I finally have my own! I can't begin to say how valuable it is in eliciting responses that can be the beginning of useful conversations in a counseling skill-building type setting. The questions really make them think, but they don't mind the mental effort because the game is so engaging.
