SUMMARY:THERAPLAY LEVEL 1 & MIM - Cairns
DESCRIPTION:Theraplay® Level One & MIM\nTheraplay® 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 complementary approach to Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy (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 \nTheraplay® has been used successfully to help: \n\nChildren with developmental trauma\nShy\, withdrawn children\nOveractive\, controlling or aggressive children\nFoster/adoptive children with attachment difficulties\nChildren with Autism Spectrum Disorder & 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 & evidence base of Theraplay®\nThe four dimensions of Theraplay®: Structure\, Engagement\, Nurture & Challenge. Undertake activities for each of the dimensions\nAdminister the Marshack Interaction Method (MIM) & analyse it at a beginning level\nConduct feedback sessions with parents based upon the MIM analysis\nUse the MIM as a guideline for Theraplay® treatment planning\nObserve demonstrations of Theraplay® treatment and techniques\nPractice Theraplay® activities in dyads\nIdentify the types of behaviours that require a particular dimension\nUtilise the four Theraplay® dimensions to treat the specific needs of a child\nHow Theraplay® is applied to meet the needs of children with behaviour problems\, foster and adopted children\, children with ASD\, & older children\nHow to guide parents to participate in a Theraplay® treatment session\n\nParticipants must attend all hours of the course to receive the certificate. \nAudience: for mental health professionals and education professionals at all levels & any professional that applies behavioural\, developmental and relational science to their practice. \nMental Health Professionals: All mental health professionals including\, but not limited to Social Workers\, Psychologists\, Nurses\, Occupational Therapists\, Youth Workers\, Mental Health Workers\, Family Therapists\, Speech and Language Therapists\, Residential Care Workers and Foster Support Worker\, Play Therapists\, and all other mental health professionals looking to enhance their therapeutic skill with families. \nEducation Professionals: Professionals who work with children or youth including\, but not limited to K–12 School Counsellors\, School Paraprofessionals and all other professionals who support behavioural challenges and complex learning needs. \n  \n
