@redwoodcenterforchildren: Last week we had session one, and now we are continuing our journey of a child in play therapy after witnessing domestic violence. Here are sessions 2-4: moving from flight/freeze play to more connected and expressive play as the child relaxes in the presence of the therapist and starts to play about how they feel. #redwoodcenterforchildrenandfamilies #playtherapist #domesticabuseawareness #kids #trauma

The reflections about the babies being out of order and the girl being able to go to her friends house…made me cry.

Thunder :
What do you do when children get understandably irritated by you narrating everything they're doing and making assumptions about what they're thinking and feeling? I know child me would have found that incredibly annoying and it would put me off going or engaging in activities where adults did this. I can't be the only one!

I did play therapy as a kid and everything I did the lady would ask me why " why did you make a blue snake why not rainbow " it made me rage .

i would have looooved to play with you in the playroom when i was a child 🥹 curious though — how do you handle a client who becomes frustrated or angry about the tracking and reflective language? i would tell/ask adulation all the time why they were speaking to me that way! obviously outside of a clinical setting, i never had that privilege

When I was 8 I am certain that I was taken from class to have sessions like this. I have no idea why to this day but have memories of having one on one time with a lady that wasn’t a teacher. I’m estranged from my family and my mom disowned me so I can’t ask what was happening to cause the school to have these sessions with me. That whole part of my life is just blocked out.

Omg! I’m loving your content. I’ve never considered getting trained in play therapy and due to my own trauma I’ve stepped away from working with children. This is seriously making me reconsider.

This brought me to tears. I’m 49ers old and as a child no one ever spoke to me this way. 💜
