Advanced Training Experiences for Certified Synergetic Play Therapists/Providers
Whether your next step is:
- Deep personal self-mastery
- Advanced clinical application
- Embodied cultural humility and systemic insight
These Advanced Synergetic Play Therapy Programs are designed to support your continued evolution—as a clinician and as a human.
Deepen Your Practice. Deepen Yourself.
The Advanced Synergetic Play Therapy Programs are designed exclusively for Certified SPTers who are ready to move beyond foundational integration and into depth, embodiment, and expanded application.
Each advanced program offers a distinct pathway—whether your next edge is self-mastery, advanced clinical application across the lifespan, or embodied cultural humility and systemic awareness.
Together, these programs support the truth at the heart of Synergetic Play Therapy.
The more regulated, embodied, and authentic you become, the more transformational your work becomes.
Advanced Self Mastery Program
4 Days • In-Person • Limited Capacity • Certified SPTers Only
This is not clinical training. This is personal development, just for you.
The Advanced Self Mastery Program is a four-day, in-person experience created exclusively for Certified Synergetic Play Therapists and Providers who are ready to deepen their relationship with themselves, their nervous system, and the experiences that have shaped who they are.
At the heart of this experience is a question we return to throughout our lives:
“Who am I?”
Throughout your SPT certification journey, you’ve explored nervous system regulation, interoceptive awareness, authenticity, congruence, and the relationship between the body and mind. Self Mastery invites you to turn that same curiosity inward.
As you deepen your understanding of yourself, you have the opportunity to explore how your body and mind work together, how your perceptions shape your experiences, and what it means to live with greater authenticity and congruence.
What You’ll Experience:
- A four-day, in-person program created exclusively for Certified SPTers
- Opportunities for self-inquiry, embodied awareness, reflection, and integration
- An experiential creative process exploring an emotional charge through the body, movement, objects, clay, paint, and other materials
- Time to connect with a community of Certified SPTers who understand this work from the inside out
