There is no such thing as the best approach for play therapy with traumatized kids.


What????!!!!  😱


Searching for the ONE approach that will heal ALL your traumatized clients and is BETTER THAN all the play therapy models existing today is an exercise in frustration, overwhelm, and exhaustion.  


I know what you’re thinking 👇


If that’s the case, then how do you help your traumatized clients heal using play therapy?


There are a few things to consider when using play therapy to help children and teens heal.


Not all play therapists are the same and not all children and teens are the same.


For that matter - not all caregivers are the same.


Let’s look at this a different way and ask a different question:


How can you help your traumatized clients heal using play therapy?


This question opens up all kinds of possibilities.


Join me for this week’s free weekly Podcast to discuss how to use play therapy to heal trauma.


I’ll discuss basic components of play therapy for healing trauma and suggestions for how to use play therapy to help your traumatized clients heal.
