"History of Play Therapy"
This workshop will provide clinicians with basic information regarding the history of play therapy as well as professional insight in the application of play therapy in child treatment. Participants will learn about early professional influences in the development of play therapy: Virginia Axline's Child Centered treatment as play therapy's foundation and the eclectic mix of current play therapy theories. Attachment, psychology and play will be reviewed as it relates to the evolution of play therapy. Participants will be encouraged to examine their own application of play therapy. A bibliography for future study will be referenced and questions will be encouraged. Play therapy history is one of the topic areas required for the Registered Play Therapist credential. An article of the History of Play Therapy and an exam will be emailed to registrants for completion prior to the workshop.
