Effective Parenting Strategies for Play Therapists & Child Psychotherapists in VA
Description:
Parents often seek pediatricians as first responders for significant behavioral issues among children. Pediatricians then defer to therapists for complicated cases. Being equipped with practical and effective discipline and effective parenting strategies are therefore essential for play therapists and child psychotherapists. This workshop will provide practical and useful information to guide parents, based on the work of Rudolf Dreikurs, Amy Lew, Betty Lou Bettner (Adlerian Psychology), Garry Landreth (A.C.T Model), and Becky Bailey (Conscious Discipline). Additionally, participants will learn how to apply Adlerian principles in the play therapy process.
Objectives:
- Identify the formula for effective parenting.
- Discuss the Crucial C's and the Goals of Misbehavior as applied to parenting and play therapy process.
- Demonstrate how to guide parents to better connect with their children using play therapy techniques.
