Discover the Program:

The Introduction to Synergetic Play Therapy program is tailored for both beginning and experienced practitioners, offering the tools to deepen your understanding of play therapy and apply cutting-edge neuroscience in your practice. Here’s a glimpse of what you’ll explore:

Regulation:

• Become an external regulator to support repatterning a child’s nervous system for integration and healing.
• Learn how to teach a child interoceptive (body) awareness (the key ingredient for self-regulation and co-regulation).
• Understand how nervous system activation connects to mental health symptoms.

The Brain & Neuroscience:

• Learn how to create a neuroception of safety during emotional flooding.
• Set boundaries that support brain integration while keeping children engaged in therapy.
• Use reflections and responses that target multiple areas of the brain for deeper healing.

Collaborative Relationships:

• Build effective partnerships with caregivers to support the therapeutic process.
• Help caregivers recognize that all behaviors make sense, even challenging ones.
• Set goals, track a child’s therapeutic progress, and translate the child’s play to their caregivers and others.

Authenticity & Congruence:

• Use therapist authenticity to promote profound client change and prevent burnout.
• Explore aggressive play, sand, and art through the lenses of regulation, mindfulness, and attachment.
• Cultivate cultural sensitivity to honor the unique experiences and needs of each client.

“SPT is the missing piece in play therapy. I gained an understanding of who I am in the playroom—a humanness that wasn’t there before.” – Frances Donohue
