Description:
This interactive workshop will provide a brief introduction to the SAMSHA evidenced-based intervention of Theraplay. The goal of Theraplay is to help the parent/caregiver become more attuned to the child and responsive to the child’s needs and for the child to be accepting of a more secure attachment experience. With the support of the Theraplay practitioner, parents/caregivers learn to play with their child in a way that establishes felt safety, increases social engagement, expands arousal regulation, and supports the development of positive self-esteem for both the child and the parent.
