Training Description

​This play therapy training is offered On-Demand as a go-at-your-own pace course for non-contact hours.

For children who have experienced complex trauma, play therapy provides children with an opportunity for a safe space and a meaningful attuned relationship. Incorporating research from Trust Based Relational Intervention, EMDR, and Somatic Experiencing™, the therapist can give the child a voice through directive play therapy techniques focused on facilitating communication, self-regulation, stress management, and social competence, allowing the Window of Tolerance to be widened to a new world of possibilities. 

 

Pre-requisites: This training is open to all clinicians, including those with no prior EMDR training. The theory and skills taught in this course are applicable for all clinicians. Since Rhonda is an EMDR Approved Consultant and trainer in EMDR therapy, there will be discussion of how to integrate the information into the EMDR Therapy Standard Protocol.  Only participants who have completed EMDRA-Approved Basic EMDR Training will receive EMDRIA credit.
