Description:

 

We will learn the power of attachment and how attachment is at times overlooked by play therapists when treating children with oppositional and self-destructive behaviors. Play therapists will also gain a better understanding of how disruption in attachment can be the root cause of some other behavioral health symptoms for which children present for therapy. Trauma, grief, and loss can impact a child’s ability to form meaningful and secure attachments. It’s crucial for play therapists to evaluate and treat attachment disruption. Additionally, play therapists will learn evidence-based interventions to help strengthen and repair the child-parent

relationship.

 

Objectives:

 

  • Identify attachment issues presented in children who are receiving play therapy
  • Explain the difference between attachment issues and attachment disorder
  • Identify evidence-based play therapy interventions to build and repair attachment
