​

"Coming to Our Senses:

Utilizing Applied Sensory Strategies in Your Play Therapy Practice"

We are excited to launch our second year with this conference and we have a lot of exciting news to share as we get closer to our event!

SITH Conference?

Yes! We are excited to offer this engaging, high energy conference as an opportunity to reconnect with fellow clinicians and learn creative interventions to put that spark back into your clinical practice. While SITH stands for Supportive Innovations for Therapeutic Heroes, it is also a nod to Maria's passion for geek culture. ​

​

This conference is not your typical conference - you are invited to come, dressed to move and learn. Are you a geek? Have a fandom or interest? Wear your geek gear! Appropriate attire includes yoga pants or leggings or comfortable pants you can move in topped with your favorite t-shirt proudly displaying your interest - Star Wars, Harry Potter, Star Trek, Marvel, DC, Anime, Bands, Punny Ts.

*We do expect them to be appropriate in that there is no nudity, offensive messages or political affiliations. This is to ensure a comfortable environment for all.

"We are the spark that'll light the fire."
