Jen Taylor Play Therapy Services

Course Description:

There are multiple lenses for clinical conceptualization in Play Therapy and Play Therapy supervision. Play therapists and play therapy supervisors strengthen their clinical practice, relationships and consultations by practicing cultural humility and challenging implicit and overt cultural biases and minimizing cultural encapsulation. 

In this interactive recorded webinar we will explore the salience of race and culture in creating a therapeutic alliance through authentic learning experiences, clinical examples, and discussion. This workshop will challenge play and child therapists and play therapy supervisors to examine and assess how biases show up in play therapy, the impact bias has on our child clients, their families and our communities and what we can do to engage in the lifelong practice of cultural humility.
