Portable and Potent Tools: Play Therapy Paper Techniques

Come and play in person while earning CEs! This will be a highly experiential play therapy workshop.

Many play therapists pivoted from in-person to online play therapy during the COVID pandemic. This shift happened quickly and demanded flexibility and creativity on the part of play therapists around the globe. As a result, play therapists have expressed an appreciation for portable, printable, mailable, and cost-effective play therapy supplies and techniques. These tools are also great for mobile play therapists, play therapists with small spaces, and those just starting out. Many of these activities are ones I used long before covid and I am excited to share their power of paper arts with you.

Expressive arts offer valuable tools for helping children, adults, and families make sense and meaning out of difficult times. 

In this workshop, we will explore the power of paper-based activities in play therapy through a Gestalt play therapy lens.
