CONFERENCE WORKSHOP DESCRIPTIONS Child maltreatment, including such things as physical abuse, sexual abuse, exposure to domestic violence, and child neglect, transcends all socioeconomic boundaries and impacts every community in our nation. Learn to utilize play therapy with maltreated children and adolescents in ways that are meaningful and developmentally appropriate while reducing posttraumatic symptoms and promoting healing.

A prescriptive approach will be utilized to assist therapists in adapting their clinical practice to tailor treatment to meet the needs of each unique client to promote optimal growth and development for survivors of child abuse.
