Play Therapy Training

My play therapy trainings are designed to inspire, equip, and support mental health professionals in using the power of play to help children heal and grow. Whether you're new to play therapy or seeking advanced training, I offer engaging, developmentally informed, and relationship-centered learning experiences rooted in the principles of Child-Centered Play Therapy (CCPT) and trauma-informed care.

Children express themselves and make sense of their world through play. Play therapy provides a developmentally appropriate way for children to process emotions, build coping skills, and strengthen relationships. Learning to facilitate this process requires both knowledge and presence—the ability to trust the child, the process, and yourself. My trainings blend theory with practical application to help you feel confident and grounded in your play therapy work.

My trainings are designed to meet APT (Association for Play Therapy) requirements for those working toward the Registered Play Therapist (RPT) or School Based-Registered Play Therapist (SB-RPT) credential. Trainings include clearly defined learning objectives, CE opportunities, and documentation for RPT supervision hours. In addition, I am an approved continuing education provider by the National Board for Certified Counselors.

My trainings are experiential, relational, and reflective. I believe learning happens best in a supportive space where participants can ask questions, share experiences, and explore the emotional and practical aspects of working with children. Whether you're just beginning your play therapy journey or looking to refresh and deepen your practice, my goal is to help you feel connected—to the material, to your clients, and to yourself.

Play therapy is a powerful tool—and it starts with you. Join us for a training that nurtures your development, inspires your work, and reminds you why you chose this path.
