From Italy with Inspiration: Celebrating Play Therapy, Community, and Growth

Ciao! Lisa had an incredible two weeks in Chiavenna, Italy, earlier this month and is feeling energized and inspired after speaking and attending the International Conference: Play is the Future 2026 and co-teaching the new Crisis in Play Therapy Certification.

To say that the Crisis in Play Therapy training was amazing is an understatement. In fact, it was so inspiring Lisa agreed to do it again next year in Italy, so stay tuned! And it was so fun to spend time with SPTers in truly “one of, if not the most, spectacular places I have ever been for a training.”
