Attachment-Focused Family Play Therapy With Traumatized Kids And Their Families With Cathi Spooner, LCSW, RPT-S
It’s unrealistic to make children the change agents in their families when they are the least powerful. As therapists, we must address the important relationship between parent and child to help parents become the therapeutic agents of change themselves. In this episode, Althea T. Simpson is joined by Licensed Social Worker and Registered Play Therapist Supervisor, Cathi Spooner, to talk about attachment-focused play therapy with traumatized children and their families. She talks about the process parents need to go through to think about how they can properly have a disciplinary structure with their child, and then gives some advice to other therapists out there on how they can work with their clients better. In working effectively with traumatized children, working with the family is vital for healing and recovery, and it takes training and practice. Start here by listening in on the wisdom Cathy imparts and more.
