Crisis Play Therapy Level 1 Training (Italy)
Embark on the new and exclusive Crisis Play Therapy Certification, July 6-12, 2026, in Italy! A specialized program led by internationally renowned experts Isabella Cassina, Lisa Dion, Clair Mellenthin, and Claudio Mochi.
Here’s a brief overview of this certification program:
The contemporary world is complex and dynamic and constantly confronts us with new challenges as people and professionals. The two-level certification program in “Crisis Play Therapy” (CPT) enables those who work with children, families, and communities to acquire fundamental, cutting-edge skills and knowledge to address a variety of crisis and high vulnerability situations induced by natural and human induced hazards.
Upon completion of the CPT two-level certification program, participants will be able to design and develop clinical interventions and neuroscience-informed psychosocial projects in crisis and high vulnerability contexts with a focus on managing stress, trauma (including intergenerational) and grief caused by a range of situations such as natural disasters (earthquakes, fires, floods), conflict, poverty and migration.
In addition to fostering professional growth and the acquisition of skills, the CPT program includes a personal development component in both levels I and II. Crisis and high vulnerability contexts impact the person and the professional directly and indirectly. The application of play and expressive arts for wellbeing and self-care is a key component of good practice.
The trainers and supervisors are international mental health experts specializing in trauma work, emergency intervention, psychosocial project development, play therapy or expressive arts. They all have a title recognized by one or more authorities in the Play Therapy world.
