About this Event
One of the most foundational skills in Play Therapy is Reflecting Feelings, but recent data shows that it is the most underused skill among play therapists. In this workshop, you will receive a Reflecting Feelings crash course, that includes a deep dive into the skill (both theoretically and practically), tips for effective application with parents, articulation of the skill, why it is necessary, and strategies to make it more of a routine in your Play Therapy practice.
Learning Objectives:
- Demonstrate effective use of Reflecting Feelings in Play Therapy practice
- Utilize knowledge of Reflecting Feelings skills to communicate and coach parents
- Apply knowledge of new emotions to clinical practice, as part of an expanded emotional vocabulary
