Introduction to TraumaPlay™: Flexibly-Structured Sand, Art, and Clay for Children and Teens

Many of the traumatized children and families that counselors see in clinical settings are unable to process trauma through language. Instead, they are better able to work through what has happened using developmentally-sensitive media, steeped in play, and grounded in attachment relationships. In this 3-hour experiential workshop, participants on will go on a journey through the seven components of TraumaPlay℠. Each treatment goal will be illustrated by specific play therapy interventions or case examples, and demonstrated through both non-directive and directive play therapy approaches. Experiential activities will include work with sand, clay, and art materials. This workshop is suitable for all clinicians who work with traumatized children and teens and are looking for creative ways to enhance healing, and ultimately help families to hold “hard stories” together.
