Osborne’s new book, grounded in the latest research from Traumatology and Play Therapy, leads children on a journey to find out what happened with Sam and along the way discover their own hidden feelings and fears and begin to discharge their trauma. Recommended for young children who have witnessed domestic violence or other forms of abuse. The book is designed for use by professional therapists but the principles contained in this book will be valuable for any parent. | [3]  |

They will be able to identify and manage their own feelings and difficulties in their lives following a traumatic event, crisis, or grief.Therapists’ Acclaim for Sam Feels Better Now “This beautiful little picture book is the ideal guide for a series of therapy sessions that will focus the child’s attention on positives and help to deal with the traumatic memories” – Bob Rich, PhD., AnxietyAndDepression-help.com |
