What’s the best approach to using play therapy with traumatized children and teens?


If you’re a play therapist or child/adolescent mental health professional, then you probably have clients on your caseload who have experienced trauma.


The thing about experiencing trauma is that it’s unique to each child and adolescent.


While there are definitely similar issues to address at the heart of the treatment process, individualizing your approach to fit each client is important to ensure deep healing.


So, what’s a play therapist to do?  


Is there a play therapy approach that meets the unique needs of each client for healing?


This week I’m discussing a play therapy model that gets to the heart of healing trauma with children and teens using the wisdom of neuroscience and attachment theory.  So don’t miss it and join the conversation!
