Workshop Description: 

Participants in this workshop will learn the major play therapy principles and theories and historical underpinnings. The focus will be on Jungian psychology emphasizing play/expressive therapy techniques. Jungian concepts such as active imagination, persona, and shadow will be explored in how they show up in the play therapy room while exploring the integration of other theoretical frameworks including Internal Family Systems, Neuroscience, Attachment, Adlerian as well as others. Time will be devoted to process psychological constructs and how they relate to self as well as to clients. Experiential exercises using play/expressive therapies including dance/movement therapy will be used to further deepen knowledge of how to apply theories to practice. 

Learning Objectives: 

1. Identify, describe and contrast major play therapy models and tenets
2.  Explore Jungian psychology to major theoretical concepts and identify common themes and differences.
3. Identify basic functions of the Ego, persona, shadow and Archetypes from Jungian perspective and how they fit into play therapy.
4. Demonstrate functions of projection, transference, story-making and symbolic forms in the play therapy room.
5. Practice use of Mandala and other Jungian practices to deepen awareness of self and explore how to implement theoretical concepts into play therapy.  
6. Demonstrate use of metaphorical symbols in play therapy using the Jungian Concepts.

Unfortunately, we cannot issue refunds for On-Demand (Asynchronous) webinars due to the fact that once purchased, the participant has access immediately to all materials.

Refunds will also not be issued due to technical limitations of the participant. We provide detailed instructions, and we are happy to assist in this area to a reasonable extent; however, we don’t have the staff to guide you through every step of the process.
