Play therapists often believe that they are lost in understanding the play and perspective of children in the play therapy process. This limitation leads to doubts about how to respond to children and how to conceptualize what is happening in play therapy. Through discovering themes of children and their play, a play therapist can empathically respond to the individual nature of each child client, leading to greater understanding in the therapeutic relationship. This webinar will offer the process for identification of themes, understanding the progression of theme resolution, and ways in which the play therapist can respond more accurately within session. Therapists will walk away knowing the typical themes that emerge in play therapy and a process by which they can learn to be more empathically attuned to their clients. -

Marshall Lyles will walk you through examples honoring this intersection through use of the sand tray. Scroll down for all of the course details! -
