Have you been searching for ways to create a deeper impact for your clients? Or perhaps you are:

  • Looking for game-changing concepts, ideas, and techniques to repattern a child’s nervous system and become a more effective external regulator in the playroom?
  • Wanting to experience aggressive play, sand, and art from the perspectives of nervous system regulation, attunement, attachment, mindfulness and authenticity?
  • Feeling burned out and want to find ways to come back to yourself or feel “green” again, like a new therapist full of curiosity and liveliness?
  • Curious how to create a neuroception of safety for both the child and the caregiver to experience deeper integration?
  • Wanting to learn a solid play therapy theory that combines the powers of play with interpersonal neurobiology?
  • Or just wanting to feel a little more like YOU in the play therapy process?

Online Introduction to Synergetic Play Therapy® is a 32-hour program that takes you on a journey to explore the neuroscience behind what is happening in the play therapy process, how to repattern a child’s nervous system, and what it means to become an external regulator in the playroom.

You will learn how to effectively work with caregivers and what it means to create a neuroception of safety allowing both the child and the caregiver to have a deeper integration.

And if this wasn’t enough, you will come to understand the magic of aggressive play, sand and art from the perspectives of nervous system regulation, attunement, attachment, mindfulness, and authenticity.

You’ll learn all this while also learning how to avoid burnout and compassion fatigue. Come discover what showing up in the playroom truly means and explore what is happening in the play therapy process, how change occurs, and ultimately what it takes to help children heal at profound levels. And the best part is, you get to be you on the journey! 

“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
