Location: Zoom (Virtual)

This workshop is an introduction to Reflective Play Therapy Supervision (RFPTS), a model that applies what we know works best about play therapy to the practice of supervision! We will explore the model's main components, including play therapy elements, supervisor functions (the "4 P's"), and phases. Whether you are new to supervision, a seasoned supervisor, or exploring the topic, this presentation will provide tools to assess play therapy skills and targeted, playful strategies to maximize play therapists’ growth and development.
