Description:

Therapists working with young children in play therapy will inevitably over time encounter children who have been sexually abused.  Paying attention to potential “red flags “  is essential since young children typically do not have the words to communicate what is too painful or complicated to say with words.  When sexual abuse has been disclosed, certain patterns in the child’s play may be evident.  This workshop will address various behaviors in play therapy that should prompt the therapist to look further. Suggested responses will be included.  

Learning Objectives:

After attending this live webinar, participants will be able to:

• Describe how sexual abuse themes may be manifested in children's play.
• Describe how children have used play therapy to demonstrate self-protection and self-healing.
• Identify responses by therapists to provide validation, empathy and insight in play therapy.
