Translating the Play for Parents

Presented by Helen Ritchie, BCRPT-S, Certified Synergetic Play Therapy® Supervisor

 

We hope you enjoy this 1 hour & 30 minutes – Pre-recorded Play Café 

 

Have you ever wondered how to explain what’s going on in the playroom to parents?

Would you like to be able to link the play to therapeutic goals so that parents see the progress and keep coming back? If the answer is yes, this Play Café is for you!

In this short presentation you will learn:

  • How to set developmentally appropriate goals and get a baseline during the parent intake session.
  • How to maintain client confidentiality and share progress with parents at the same time
  • What the Synergetic Play Therapy® concept of the Offering/the Set up is
  • How to notice what children are showing you with not only what they play with but how they play with it.
  • How to link the play to the goals for parents through exploration of many clinical examples and discussion in break out rooms.

Note: while this workshop is based on Synergetic Play Therapy® principles, it is applicable to all models of Play Therapy.

 

Who May Benefit from this Presentation:

Anyone who is interested in learning about the basics of play therapy: Students, child therapists, family therapists, psychologists, social workers, school counsellors, and other mental health professionals working with children, adolescents and families will benefit from this training. No prior play therapy knowledge is necessary.
