Full details about presenters and techniques:

1. Paris Goodyear Brown, United States- Demonstrating Parents as Partners in Play Therapy


Parents can be powerful allies in the play therapy process, especially when working with traumatized children. TraumaPlay™ principles for helping caregivers become more connected co-regulators, stronger storykeepers, and safer bosses set the stage for a host of play therapy interventions that target treatment goals for parents. Clinicians will leave this training with new ways to provide playful psychoeducation, in vivo doses of delight between parent and child, help parents with their own negative activation, and co-create coherent narratives about hard things. Person of the play therapist reflection will also be shared.

2. Rinda Blom, South Africa- Demonstrating Dealing with Aggression in the Playroom

This presentation will focus on the function and necessity of aggression during play therapy and in the playroom. Ways to handle possible destructiveness and how to assist the child to convert aggression into creative energy will be handled, with an emphasis on how to assist the child to move from chaotic aggression, to focused aggression, to integrated aggression. The role of the therapist when dealing with aggression will be explained, followed by a short case study to illustrate certain key concepts. Four directive play therapy activities that can be used to facilitate and channel cathartic aggression to self-assertiveness as positive aggression, will discussed and illustrated with video demonstrations and photographs.

3. Maggie Fearn, South Wales- Demonstrating Nature as Therapeutic Ally in Play Therapy

We will touch on theories from interpersonal neurobiology, including experiencing Nature as co-regulator in Play Therapy, exploring applications of key concepts from Polyvagal Theory, and the link between attachment and developing a sense of place. We will discuss how to bring Nature into the Play Therapy room and examine a case study that reflects on how a child played within the liminal space between inside and out. I will then share a video of sensory exploration of outdoor therapeutic space, giving participants ideas for activities they can take away with them.

4. Greg Lubimiv, Canada- Demonstrating A New Big Bang Theory: The Delightful Collision of Play Therapy and Family Therapy

Many play therapists apply their skills and knowledge in working just with children and youth individually. As well, many family therapists who work with families as a whole do not utilize play therapy or play based interventions in their therapy. Learn how to integrate play therapy tools, techniques and activities into the family therapy model and have your families benefit from increased engagement, retention as well as positive outcomes. Greg’s creative and interactive session, “A New Big Bang Theory.….” will provide participants with some of Greg’s most effective activities and tools to utilize in Family Therapy. All of the presented activities and tools can be used in person or virtually.

5. Judi Parson, Australia- Demonstrating Medical Play Therapy

Play is essential for human development and Play Therapists understand that play is used to access the conscious and unconscious sensations, thoughts, feelings of children. Within the context of the medical and health settings a range of normative, educative and therapeutic play may be available and provided by Hospital Play Specialist or Child Life Professionals. However, for children who have experienced acute or chronic diseases, illnesses, injuries or iatrogenic trauma there may be a need for longer-term medical play therapy. This 50 minute presentation will link both therapeutic play and play therapy with the therapeutic powers of play. A range of psychoeducational preparation techniques for medical procedures will be showcased to reduce anxiety and increase personal strengths to cope with medical encounters.

6. Akiko Ohnogi, Japan- Demonstrating Play Therapy for Children Traumatized by Natural Disasters

Children worldwide are traumatized by natural disasters. Many of these children will be able to cope over time with the appropriate help of parents and caring adults, while some children may be at risk of reactions impacting the development of the child, and increasing the risk of emotional, behavioral, academic, social, and physical problems throughout the child’s life span. The use of play in healing from trauma in a safe environment changes the trauma network in a child’s brain. As play “speaks” directly to the areas of the brain impacted by the trauma experience, utilizing the therapeutic powers of play is effective and appropriate in dealing with and treating the effects of trauma in children. This webinar will highlight how one can conduct effective play therapy with young children traumatized by a natural disaster through lecture, demonstrations of activities, and presentation of case examples.

I'm happy I attended the course. I learned a lot of tools and innovative resources to engage children online. It is hard to plan and try to retain the focus of children through a monitor, but the techniques and ideas provided are fun, and children love fun. If they do not feel like it is a session or exercise, they will look forward to meeting the counselor weekly or during the scheduled time. The facilitator did a great job giving examples and including attendees to participate. Although I was in the crowd, she made me feel like a happy kid in the session. She does an amazing job with her tone, occasional smiles and making the attendees feel welcome. I will use some of what I learned today and apply it to my practice.

I really enjoyed learning about IFS and how to integrate it into my practice with couples as well as individuals. IFS contains a lot of what I have been looking for in addressing how we can release ourselves from the pain of our pasts and heal from those childhood hurts and trauma that impact us all. The presentation was straightforward, concise and informative. It left me feeling like this is something that I can do and be good at. I look forward to advanced training in this area.

I loved the enthusiasm of (most of) the presenters! They were engaging & fun & their passion for the work they do truly shined through! I loved all the resources shared, and never felt I was sitting through a 'sales pitch'! It is ever so important to have a variety of resources available - many of the presenters happily shared options! There were a few presenters who simply 'read' their power point - (not as engaging!); and one or two who spoke WAY too fast for anyone who was taking notes (good thing there is access to the recording!). Overall, however - the "learning" was fun, the information relevant (& current) and the variety of presenters and backgrounds & theory bases made for an excellent presentation! ...AND a fun-filled way to start my day! Thank you! ;-)
