Individual Adventure Psychotherapy provides a clinical model for utilizing adventure therapy in individual therapy sessions, exploring key foundations, theories, and ethics of the practice approach.

Structured by summarizing the conceptual foundations for each chapter, followed by a greater emphasis on the practical application of adventure therapy by individual psychotherapists, this book helps readers increase their critical thinking and clinical skills to select, customize, and adapt activities in practice. Chapters focus on how to actively assess client functioning, select appropriate activities, shape an effective treatment environment, and help participants process and evaluate their experiences as they move toward their clinical goals. Also covered is how to attend to diversity, equity, and inclusion considerations as well as provide trauma-informed adventure therapy.

This text is critical for providing students and clinical practitioners with a strong foundation for ethical, intentional, and effective experiential practice.
