How to Increase Play Therapy Impact & Reduce Burnout

More Impact. Less Burnout. isn’t a cute slogan. It’s a line in the sand.

Because here’s the truth most play therapists won’t say out loud:

Burnout doesn’t come from caring too much.
It comes from doing this work alone.

In this week’s free livestream episode, we’re pulling back the curtain on why being part of a strategic play therapy community isn’t optional if you want sustainable impact in play therapy. 

Not another play therapy training. Not more play therapy activities. 

But real-time support, shared wisdom, and a place where your nervous system can finally exhale with people who “get it.”

We’ll talk about:

  • Why isolation quietly drains confidence, creativity, and clinical clarity
  • How being in the right play therapy community sharpens your impact with clients
  • What actually helps play therapists stay grounded when the work gets heavy
  • And how Play Therapy Elevation CIRCLE is intentionally designed to reduce burnout while helping you work smarter—not harder

You’ll also get an inside look at what’s inside PTEC during Open Enrollment week—how it works, who it’s for, and why so many play therapists say it’s the missing piece they didn’t know they needed.

If you’ve ever thought:
 “I love this work… but I’m tired.”
