SUMMARY:Naropa Alumni Event
DESCRIPTION:Lisa will be speaking at Naropa’s Passing the Torch alumni event\, an event dedicated to giving graduates a chance to connect\, network\, and develop professionally. \nHer workshop is on: The Need for An External Regulator During Traumatic Play. \nWithout the ability of the therapist to become the external regulator for the intensity that arises during trauma play\, both the child and the therapist are at risk for high levels of nervous system dis-regulation.  This can significantly impact a therapist’s longevity in the field\, as well as the ability to stay present and attuned. This presentation explores how to facilitate the integration of trauma in children (and adults) in the playroom. \nTo learn more about this event or register\, please go here.

SUMMARY:Growing Up in Play Therapy
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we go back in time and revisit the early stages of human development and how they impact the play therapy process. During this six-hour workshop you will learn to recognize each stage within your child client and yourself\, so that you can begin to assess a child’s emotional age versus their chronological age. Knowing this information is a crucial part of understanding what type of intervention to make and how to conceptualize what is happening for the child. Participants will also gain a better understanding on how to track a child’s progress and how to identify empowerment in the play therapy process\, so that they can feel more confident communicating this information to the child’s parents and teachers. Case studies\, videos and experiential exercises will be used to integrate this information into the play therapy process. Play Therapy Institute of Colorado – Home of Synergetic Play Therapy Founder Lisa Dion\, LPC\, RPT-S\, will be teaching this course. \nRegister here.

SUMMARY:A Neurobiological Approach to Using Sand in Play Therapy
DESCRIPTION:In this workshop\, you will have a one of kind experience as you explore a new and fresh way of using sand non-directively in your play therapy sessions. You will be introduced to using sand through the lens of Synergetic Play Therapy\, the first research-informed play therapy model to blend together neuroscience\, attachment/attunement\, therapist authenticity\, physics\, emotional congruence\, nervous system regulation\, and mindfulness. Through didactic and experiential teachings\, you will learn cutting-edge research on interpersonal neurobiology\, mindfulness\, nervous system regulation\, and brain development as the research is translated into innovative ways of using the sand to help re-pattern your child client’s nervous systems. You will also learn what it means to attach to one’s self as the cornerstone for all healing\, the importance of congruent emotional expression in the playroom\, how to identify types of dysregulation in the child’s sand trays\, how to model regulating activities\, and ultimately how to re-pattern a child’s nervous system while taking care of your own nervous system to prevent vicarious trauma and compassion fatigue.

SUMMARY:The Neurobiology of Parenting
DESCRIPTION:Did you know when your child acts out their most problematic moods and behaviors\, that’s actually their incredibly wise way of communicating with you in their lives? In this course\, Lisa Dion\, licensed professional counselor and registered play therapist\, will teach you how to use the insights of modern neuroscience to better understand and shape your children’s moods and behaviors\, while developing their brains!  You will learn what it takes to truly raise children that are not only successful in life\, but thrive. You will also learn how to understand what is happening in the minds and bodies of your children and what it takes to maximize their brain and emotional development and in yourself! \nTopics include:\n1.     Why understanding your child’s nervous system will help you be a better parent.\n2.     Powerful techniques to understand tantrums and misbehavior.\n3.     The ability to clearly understand what your child is trying to communicate when they are misbehaving.\n4.     Techniques for helping your child manage their own nervous system and reduce problematic behaviors.\n5.     Easy to implement strategies to make you a more effective and attuned parent.\n6.     Powerful experiential exercises to help you deal with the challenges of parenting.\n7.     How to identify what is most important to your child and how to understand where they will be most successful in life\n8.     Understanding anxiety\, depression\, addictions\, and other emotional struggles in children and how you can support them as the parent \nIn this course\, Lisa makes the growing field of neuroscience accessible and relevant to parents of all backgrounds. This course caters to both experienced and new parents\, and will help parents manage toddler tantrums\, teenagers getting in trouble\, or just the everyday stresses of parenting. Parents will leave with this course with a powerful new perspective on parenting. \nHow is this course different than other parenting courses?\nThis course focuses on the role of Neurobiology and is thus scientifically-backed. Many parenting classes and books have not yet integrated this new and extremely important research. Lisa Dion\, a licensed counselor and extremely skilled presenter\, simplifies this research into easy to implement parenting tips and techniques. \nCheck out this video for more information.

SUMMARY:A Neurobiological Approach to Using Sand in Play Therapy
DESCRIPTION:In this workshop\, you will have a one of kind experience as you explore a new and fresh way of using sand non-directively in your play therapy sessions. You will be introduced to using sand through the lens of Synergetic Play Therapy\, the first research-informed play therapy model to blend together neuroscience\, attachment/attunement\, therapist authenticity\, physics\, emotional congruence\, nervous system regulation\, and mindfulness. Through didactic and experiential teachings\, you will learn cutting-edge research on interpersonal neurobiology\, mindfulness\, nervous system regulation\, and brain development as the research is translated into innovative ways of using the sand to help re-pattern your child client’s nervous systems. You will also learn what it means to attach to one’s self as the cornerstone for all healing\, the importance of congruent emotional expression in the playroom\, how to identify types of dysregulation in the child’s sand trays\, how to model regulating activities\, and ultimately how to re-pattern a child’s nervous system while taking care of your own nervous system to prevent vicarious trauma and compassion fatigue.
