What would Kylie tell new play therapists? đź’­

You’re not expected to have it all figured out from the beginning.

Be patient with yourself. Stay curious. Seek quality training and supervision, and allow your confidence to develop through experience.

Becoming a skilled play therapist is not about being perfect, it’s about continuing to learn, reflect and grow. 💗

If you’re ready to begin or deepen your play therapy journey, explore our upcoming Child-Centred Play Therapy training opportunities via our website.

CCPT Monday: From Insight to Practice đź’—

This week we’re looking at three key concepts that sit at the heart of Child-Centred Play Therapy:

Empathy. Congruence. Unconditional Positive Regard.

These aren’t just ideas we learn about in theory, they shape how we show up with children in the playroom and are part of the relational conditions through which change can happen.

Swipe through for a quick look at each one, then go deeper in Episode 40 of The Play Therapy Circle Podcast.

And if you’re ready to move from understanding CCPT into developing these skills through practice and supervision, your CCPT training awaits.

Today we celebrate the dads, stepdads, grandads, carers, father figures and incredible men who show up for the children in their lives.

For the time you give.
For the encouragement and support.
For the love, patience and reassurance.
For the safe place you help create.
And for all the little moments that may not feel significant at the time, but mean so much to a child.

There is no one way to be a father or father figure, and every family looks different.

To all those doing their best to help children feel safe, seen, supported and loved, we see you, we appreciate you, and today we celebrate you. đź’™

Happy Father’s Day from all of us at Kylie Ellison Therapy & Training.

What exactly is Child-Centred Play Therapy? đź’—

At its heart, CCPT is about much more than toys in a room.

It’s a relationship-based approach that gives children the space to communicate, explore, process and grow through the language that comes most naturally to them - play.

If you’ve been thinking about developing your skills in Child-Centred Play Therapy, our 2027 training dates are now available.

✨ Live online training
✨ Practical, skills-based learning
✨ Supervision included
✨ A supported pathway through five CCPT modules
