This fall I spent a few days with the incredible educators at the Waterloo Region District School Board, exploring strategies to support children in their Extended Day Programs.

➡️Swipe to see the impact, the jump in educator confidence, and the words they shared.

❤️I’m so looking forward to continuing to partner with WRDSB in the new year, offering several more training sessions for school staff across the region!

The month of October brought some wonderful opportunities to train incredible professionals across Waterloo Region! 👩‍🏫

First up, I was delighted to virtually share my “Play-based Interventions for Assessing and Treating Children and Youth” training with the amazing team at .therapy

Together, we explored how to bring creativity and play into every phase of therapy for clients ages 4 to 16. We practiced hands-on activities to build rapport and trust, use playful methods for assessment, and support skill-building and closure through engaging, developmentally attuned approaches.

Some feedback from participants:
💬 “Amazing and truly inspirational,”
💬 “So interactive and informative!,” &
💬 “Lovely presenter, warm, genuine, great info.” 💛

Are you part of a child- and youth-serving organization looking to integrate more play-based interventions into your clinical work? 🧸🪁🎲💜

As a Certified Play Therapist with additional training in play therapy supervision, I’d love to support your team through customized group training or 1:1 professional consultation services. Let’s connect! 💌
