“Having been a professional custody evaluator and psychotherapist for many years, this book is far more fabulous than
I even imagined - and I held it up to pretty high standards before I even got it! This professional's handbook has serious
substance, great examples, good photographs, is highly readable and enjoyable, not dry at all while being very informative.
This book presents a good balance of Ms. Trubitt's vast experiences and sets a gold standard for establishing "who" you are in your orientation to the work. I just cant say enough about it and particularly that Ms. Trubitt cant possibly be
making a profit on it at that give-away price for what she offers! Wow.! Thanks. I will use it and treasure it!”
Sharon Marie Chester, LCSW

“Training by Anita Trubitt and her book “Play Therapy Goes to Court” are both amazingly clear, concise
and user-friendly ways to explore the sometimes intimidating world of contested child custody evaluation! Highly recommended
for therapists interested in deepening their skills when working with families going through divorce or for those who might like
to do child custody evaluations.”
Barbara Kirk, LSW
“I am an attorney concentrating in the area of Family Law. I have served as guardian ad litem for children for more than
twenty years and as custody evaluator in contested custody matters for ten.”
“I have read Ms. Trubitt's book: Play Therapy Goes to Court and it has given me a greater understanding of play
therapy as an invaluable resource for determining what is really going on with the kids of conflicted families. By focusing on the
parent-child relationship, play therapy will assist me as the GAL or CE to "see" clearly what the children are feeling.
Ms. Trubitt organizes all the components of a custody evaluation quite well, from the engagement letter to the final report
and recommendation to the court.”
“In recent cases, I have used the book as a reference tool to assist me in organizing and compiling the huge amount of
information gathered as a GAL or CE.”
“I highly recommend this book to judges, attorneys, psychologists and other professionals assisting families involved in
custody disputes.”
Marianita Lopez
Attorney/Family Court, State of Hawaii

who shares her expertise generously, compellingly and thoroughly.”

Elizabeth Kong, School Counselor
“The book is easy reading and very informative about such a complex issue. This is a ‘must have’ for
anyone involved in custody cases as a mental health professional, especially in Hawaii.”
Michelle Kaya, LCSW
“I found the book ‘Play Therapy Goes to Court’ a well-written, practical guide for therapists to assis
their clients in navigating the family court system, and to assist therapists in providing ethical, concise reports to the
court.”

“Anita Trubitt is a leader who shines light on everyone. She is full of energy, inspiring, sensitive, supportive,
gentle, and loving as teacher, therapist and advocate. Anita has demonstrated her great gift by sharing her own excellent tools,
implications, and applications in her two day training. While encouraging each play therapist's own self emmpowerment,
she quided us with courage, wisdom, and insight.”
