Have you ever thought to yourself when it’s just you and you’ve had a hard day - “I wish I had someone to help me process what just happened in that play therapy session.”


If you’re like most play therapists that I’ve met, you’re probably the only one in your agency or group that works with kids and uses play therapy (or is aspiring to learn play therapy).


Being a play therapist can feel lonely and challenging because you don’t have others who “get it” about the benefits of play therapy or who feel confident using play therapy with their young clients.


And - what you’re doing matters!


Helping children access the therapeutic powers of play is a critical need in the mental health field.


Your ability to intervene early in the life of a child to help them overcome the social and emotional difficulties they’re experiencing is important.


And you believe strongly in the importance of helping children heal - right?!


Being part of a play therapy community of like-minded mental health professionals is not a luxury - it’s a game changer, even for seasoned play therapists!


So, if you’ve been feeling like you’re on a play therapy island by yourself and wondering why being part of a play therapy community can make a difference in the quality of your play therapy services, 👇


Then join me for this free weekly podcast!


I’m going to outline three game changing reasons why being part of a play therapy community can actually help you provide more impactful and lasting healing for your play therapy clients.
