🚨 5 Signs You Might Be Accidentally Sabotaging Your Play Therapy Progress (and What to Do Instead)

If you’re a play therapist who’s tired of getting those frantic mid-week parent calls, texts, or emails saying “nothing is working”—even though you see real progress in the playroom—this week’s free livestream is for you.

Here’s the hard truth: sometimes our best play therapy efforts fall flat outside our offices. 

Parents get frustrated.   Kids feel misunderstood. 

And you end up buried under play therapy session notes, parent updates with phone calls/texts/emails, and endless questions… while the transformation you know is possible never fully takes root at home or school.

Leaving you feeling like you’re missing something but can’t quite figure it out.

What’s a play therapist to do? In this podcast episode, we’ll unpack the 5 signs you may be sabotaging your client’s progress without even realizing it—like relying too much on parent reports, or missing the chance to see family dynamics play out in real-time. 

Then I’ll show you exactly what to do instead so you can stop guessing what’s happening outside the playroom and start watching your clients and their families heal right in front of you.

Expect a fresh perspective, some “ouch” moments (in a good way), and practical steps to shift your sessions from just play to powerful, family-centered transformation.
