Rethinking Child & Family Play Therapy: From Performance to Relationship
This webinar invites therapists to reconsider how performance-based and adult-centric expectations can quietly shape child and family play therapy.
Grounded primarily in Humanistic and Child-Centered Play Therapy, with an Ecosystemic Play Therapy lens, participants will explore play as developmentally meaningful communication, caregiver engagement, cultural humility, co-regulation, and relationship-centered clinical reframes.
Participants will learn to:
-
Identify two ways performance-based and adult-centric expectations can interfere with the therapeutic relationship in child and family play therapy.
-
Apply three relationship-, regulation-, and development-informed reframes to child behavior and caregiver engagement in play therapy.
-
Differentiate compliance-focused interventions from culturally responsive Humanistic and Child-Centered Play Therapy responses in clinical scenarios.
