Description

Children with attachment disruptions due to foster care or adoption have relationship wounds that need to be acknowledged and addressed. Play is an amazing way to meet these needs and help children begin to heal.

This training will cover the core needs of adoption and ways you can meet them through thoughtful assessment, case conceptualization and treatment. This will also cover helpful interventions for adopted or foster children, including Theraplay and other play-based approaches.

Learning Objectives:

  • List the 7 core needs of adoption and analyze their role in play therapy treatment.
  • Describe appropriate assessments for adoptive and foster youth when using play therapy.
  • Describe 3 Theraplay interventions that can be used in treatment.
  • Assess specific attachment needs of foster and adoption youth based on attachment theory.
