For children whose only communication is not talking, therapists need a language that doesn't depend on words. This book offers an approach to treatment of clients who won't, or can't respond to conversation based therapy. Through empathy and respect, games, activities, community involvement and little pleasures, no-talk therapy begins to provide these sullen, anxious, enraged and confused children with self-esteem, self-confidence and self-awareness to develop a voice of their owner.
