Play Therapy with Sexually Traumatized Children

Children who have been sexually traumatized are often in need of our clinical services.  Using the best elements of both directive and non-directive play therapy approaches with these traumatized children allows for healing and repair of losses associated with sexual trauma like innocence, trust, and appropriate boundaries.  In this workshop, participants will learn about sexual development in children, the psychological markers of sexual trauma, and the special issues these children present in play therapy including consulting with non-offending parents, dealing with the powerful impact of counter transference, and setting limits. 

By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:
1) Identify sexualized play in play therapy,
2) Have experience and replicate techniques suitable in play therapy for children who have been traumatized sexually,
3) Utilize skills to alleviate issues of counter transference.
