Description:

Research shows that childhood trauma compromises neurological developments and increases risk for immediate and long term effects. People who experience childhood trauma often struggle with unmet emotional needs as they mature into adulthood. This play therapy workshop will explain the need and benefits of accessing, healing and honoring the inner child through play therapy. Workshop participants will examine why there is no such thing as “age appropriate” when it comes to play!  

Objectives:

  1. Participants of this workshop will analyze the history of the inner child concept through a play therapy lens.
  2. Participants of this workshop will assess how the wounded inner child contaminates adult life in the context of play therapy.
  3. Participants of this workshop will examine the distinct aspect of the adult and child parts through a play therapy lens.
  4. Participants of this workshop will demonstrate 4-7 play therapy techniques to implement with adult clients in accessing the inner child.  
  5. Participants of this workshop will identify brain function and how to access each aspect in an effective manner utilizing play therapy techniques in working with adult clients.
  6. Participants of this workshop will utilize a six-step process of healing trauma within the inner child with the use of play therapy techniques.
