Beyond ACEs: Healing Intergenerational Trauma through Play Therapy – Live Web-Based Workshop
Description:
The science is clear: Adverse Childhood Experiences and Developmental Trauma have a profound impact on the development of our brains and bodies. This workshop is designed for play therapists to explore through the play therapy lens how trauma is passed down from generation to generation, through both behavior and genetics. In addition, this workshop will examine Shawna Murray Browne’s Liberation-Focused Framework and how to apply it in the playroom.
Objectives:
1. Participants of this workshop will examine the play therapist’s role in intergenerational trauma as it applies to marginalized communities.
2. Participants of this workshop will discuss how intergenerational trauma presents in their clients in the playroom.
3. Participants of this workshop will examine the Liberation-Focused Framework of healing to increase the play therapist’s overall cultural competence for working with diverse clients.
4. Participants of this workshop apply components of the Liberation Focused Framework to play therapy.
5. Participants of this workshop will identify other play therapy modalities that are appropriate for healing intergenerational trauma.
6. Participants of this workshop will create a therapeutic intervention, based in play, that can address intergenerational trauma.
