Child-Centered Play Therapy Workshop

April 11-12, 2014

Workshop Leader: William Nordling, Ph.D., Member of NIRE's Training Faculty

Location: Bethesda, MD.

Workshop Description: The purpose of this two-day skills training workshop is to provide participants a comprehensive introduction to the Child-Centered Play Therapy Model and to teach participants the principles and techniques for conducting all aspects of Child-Centered Play Therapy with children, from intake through termination.

Intensive Supervised Skills Practice: The workshop emphasizes the building of participants' therapeutic skills through a process that combines lecture, demonstration and supervised practice via participant role-plays and mock play sessions. The number of participants is limited in order to ensure frequent individual supervision when participants practice aspects of the child-centered play therapy process.

Workshop Objectives: Participants will learn how to:

  • Identify the parameters for the appropriate use of play therapy
  • Quickly establish rapport and a strong therapeutic relationship with the child
  • Create the recommended therapeutic atmosphere
  • Facilitate the child's mastery of thoughts and feelings to help eliminate immature and symptomatic behaviors
  • Set and enforce limits in an effective and therapeutic way
  • Identify the major stages of play therapy and accompanying themes
  • Communicate to parents about play therapy and their child's progress and help them and the child terminate therapy

Continuing Education: Upon completion, participants receive 13 CE credits for completing this workshop.
