This article addresses the dual issues facing a social work consultant in an innercity community mental health center: 1) providing therapeutic interventions for children from multiproblem families, and 2) dealing with low staff morale. Systemic Play Therapy, a treatment method that attends to both of these issues, is described. Two case examples are given that demonstrate a systemic reframing of the individual child's problems, and specific therapeutic techniques that side-step the child's and family's "resistance" to therapy.
