From the Brainstem Through the Cortex:
An Organized Attachment Based Look at Anger in the Playroom (3 CONTACT APT Hours)
Description
An angry child is often a misunderstood child. As play therapists, it is important to become curious as to why a child might be angry. After taking this training, you will be able to describe a bottom-up, attachment based approach to seeking to understand anger in a play therapy client. You will be able to describe the nervous system, mid-brain and high brain involvement and why this can impact your understanding of a play therapy client's anger. Come prepared to write and draw as you too will practice some of the play therapy strategies that can be utilized in a play therapy session. Explore the piece that attachment and undiagnosed brain impacting infections may have and walk away with tangible things to discuss with parents.
