EFFECTIVE PARENTING STRATEGIES FOR CHILDREN IN PLAY THERAPY:

SKILLS FOR PARENT

-Live Webinar-

Due to COVID-19 health concerns, this one-time online event has been approved by APT for 3 CONTACT/CE Hours.

Description:

Parents often seek pediatricians as first responders for significant behavioral issues among children. Pediatricians then defer to therapists for complicated cases. Being equipped with practical and effective discipline and effective parenting strategies are therefore essential for play therapists and child psychotherapists. This workshop will provide practical and useful information to guide parents, based on the work of Rudolf Dreikurs, Amy Lew, Betty Lou Bettner (Adlerian Psychology), Garry Landreth (A.C.T Model), and Becky Bailey (Conscious Discipline). Additionally, participants will learn how to apply Adlerian principles in the play therapy process .

Objectives:

• Describe the formula for effective parenting
• Recall the Crucial Cs and the Goals of Misbehavior as applied to parenting and play therapy process
• Describe at least 3 methods of discipline
• Recall 12 valuable parenting strategies
• Demonstrate how to guide parents to better connect with their children using play therapy techniques
