SUMMARY:THERAPLAY® with Theraplay Institute
DESCRIPTION:Theraplay® is an evidenced-based\, attachment-focused intervention utilising non-symbolic\, interactional play to re-create experiences of secure attachment formation between parent and child. Therapist-guided short-term\, dyadic therapy focuses on improving the child’s behavioural and emotional challenges through the parent-child relationship. In a session\, the therapist guides the parent and child through playful games\, challenging activities\, and nurturing interactions. Theraplay® helps the child experience previously difficult interactions in new ways\, helps overcome fear/ shame\, increase trust\, and create a positive change in the child’s sense of self. Theraplay® helps the parent be attuned to the child\, understand the motives of the child’s behaviour and the underlying needs\, manage environmental stimuli\, and carefully challenge their child in a safe place. While other therapies may work primarily with the child alone or work with parents on managing the child’s behaviours\, Theraplay® has shown that the parent-child relationship is the most powerful and influential element for change. It is also a complimentary approach to Dyadic Developmental Practice (developed by Dan Hughes). \nTheraplay® has been used successfully to help: \n\nChildren with developmental trauma\nShy\, withdrawn children\nOveractive\, controlling or aggressive children\nFoster/adoptive children with attachment difficulties\nChildren with Autism Spectrum Disorder and Pervasive Development Disorder\nChildren with physical disabilities\, developmental delays or those who are non-verbal\nChildren who live in group settings\nEarly childhood students and others who receive services in group settings\n\nYou will learn: \n\nHistory\, core concepts and evidence base of Theraplay®\nThe four dimensions of Theraplay®. Structure\, Engagement\, Nurture and Challenge. And see activities for each of the dimensions\nWhat the Marshack Interaction Method (MIM) is and how it is used for assessment and treatment planning\nHow to determine when Theraplay® is appropriate for treatment\nHow Theraplay® sessions are planned to meet the individual child’s needs\nExplore the methods for involving parents in treatment\nHow Theraplay® is adapted for different client populations\n\nThis one-day introduction is designed for anyone wanting to know the basic concepts of Theraplay® or considering adding Theraplay® to their practice\, refer for treatment\, or work with others using Theraplay®.  For those practitioners wanting to use Theraplay® Informed Practice in their work\, the four-day Level One Theraplay® & MIM course in May is recommended.  Attendees of the one-day course who go on to register for Level One course may qualify for a discount (please contact us for details) \n
