After this workshop you will be able to:
- Describe methods for using tabletop games to work with play therapy clients on social skills, anger management strategies, stress management skills, self-regulation and organizational skills.
- Apply Adlerian play therapy conceptualization to explain how using tabletop games can help clients enhance their ability to connect, believe they are capable and that they count and increase their willingness to try new things and take risks.
- Identify tabletop games they can use to build relationships in play therapy; explore the interpersonal dynamics and intrapersonal issues of play therapy clients; and help play therapy clients gain insight into maladaptive patterns of thinking, feeling and behaving.
