Foundations of Play Therapy!!

.

Join us for a foundational virtual training during International Play Therapy Week!

Play has been part of the human experience since the beginning of time, and play therapy has a rich history that dates back to Freud! To be a successful play therapist, it's essential to understand the foundations of our work—not just for your own practice, but to confidently explain the why to caregivers, colleagues, and the community.

Yes, a history of play therapy is required for the Registered Play Therapist™ (RPT™) designation, so this training is a great step in meeting that requirement while gaining valuable insights into the evolution of the field. 🌟

In this workshop, you'll explore:
✅ The history and development of play therapy.
✅ Seminal theories that have shaped the practice.
✅ A decision-making model to guide your therapy and treatment planning.
✅ Hands-on techniques to apply theory to practice in real-world scenarios.
✅ And more!
