We ask therapists to go within to further ask the question\, “Who am I?” The goal during these nine months is for therapists to bring forth their authentic selves\, with the understanding that\, as the authentic self emerges\, therapists can increase their capacity to facilitate deeper and more complex processes within the child. Therapists will also learn more of the details of the application of SPT and develop a greater understanding about why we do what we do in the playroom. And they will have the opportunity to fine tune their skills. Subjects that will be covered include: \nSubjects that will be covered include: \n* Awareness\, Mindfulness and Attention * Attunement and Transitions * Mirror Neurons and Neurobiology * Regression and Nonverbal states * Attachment Processes and Biology of the Nervous System * Working with Parents * Adoption\, Sensory and Trauma * Biology of Emotions* Windows of Tolerance * Narratives and Perception * Working with families and groups * Working with pre-teens and teens * Goodbyes and Endings * Non-directive versus Directive * How to explain Synergetic Play Therapy * Charting cases and understanding the child’s process * \nParticipants will also participate in individual supervision each month. Video observations\, additional assignments\, and readings will also be required in order to maximize learning and integration of the material. \nWhat You Get!\n“Lisa has taught me to be a whole person-mind\, body and spirit. I experience a deeper level of connection and trust than ever before with myself\, my clients and in my personal relationships. I contribute much of that to the work I have done with Lisa! Thank you\, Lisa!” -Jordan Yost\, MA \nThe best part of this training is what happens to YOU! We designed this program to not only help you learn how to facilitate your child client’s healing\, but also to awaken your authentic self and show you how to access the truth inside of you!
