About This Activity
This event is appropriate for licensed mental health clinicians (Psychologists, Licensed Professional Counselors and Social Workers) as well as psychology graduate students. Increasingly, most applied psychology practitioners and mental health therapists are responsible in their workplaces for providing specialized care for children and adolescents exposed to trauma, though are not being trained in developmentally appropriate ways to provide such care. Dr. Tiffany McNary has designed a three hour training that helps fill this learning gap for the purpose of studying theory, techniques, and issues related to counseling traumatized children and adolescents using play therapy and the expressive arts. The theme of this training is to explore the expanding trauma, play therapy and expressive arts therapy literature base and present trauma anchored, play and expressive arts informed, developmentally appropriate techniques and strategies. This training will consist of lecture, video presentations, experiential activities and case studies.
