Play Therapy Based Applications for Trauma-Focused CBT with Children in MD

-Day 10 Play Therapy Boot Camp 

An Evidence-Based Training

Description:

 Trauma-Focused CBT is the most often used empirically-based (and SAMSHA recommended) trauma treatment approach. However, younger children, especially under the age of 8, often need a more playful and play-based approach to any CBT approach due to their developmental limitations.This didactic and experiential workshop will offer child/play therapists an overview of how to incorporate play therapy-based techniques into Trauma Focused-CBT treatment with children making it a more play therapy-based approach. Advanced-level issues and difficulties in using TF-CBT with children will also be addressed. Participants are strongly recommended to take the 10-hour free on-line course in TF-CBT (tfcbt.musc.edu), as this seminar will build upon that base.

Objectives:

  • Describe various components of TF-CBT and why play therapy-based applications may need to be inserted
  • Demonstrate three play therapy-based techniques
  • Identify the benefits of and when to use play therapy/play-based applications in the TF-CBT treatment protocol
