Neuroscience of Play and Attachment
Join Us!
Presented By:
In the training “Neuroscience of Attachment and Play”, you will explore a developmental approach to neuroscience. You will learn about five brain structures and how they relate to behavior and ability to function. You will also experience how Play Therapy assists with development and successfully integrating developmental experiences. As a participant you will experience play based activities that develop insight into your own regulation tools and how to use them to change your own nervous system state. You will also practice meeting the needs of a child or clients who are dysregulated in the playroom. You will learn about attachment theory and its implication on relationships and play therapy. Ultimately, you will leave the training with greater insight into your own needs as well as those in your care. You will have down to earth language you can use to teach caregivers about regulatory states and how they can also attune to children’s needs through the use of play.
