Course description
In this video interview, Nicole O-Pries talks about her extensive training and experience helping kids navigate traumatic stress in a variety of settings, from crime scenes to play therapy offices. She shares play therapy interventions that help kids regulate their nervous system in the days and months after trauma exposure. These practical skills can be found within a number of evidence-based trauma-focused therapies, including play therapy, and serve as the foundation for effective work with youth who have experienced single-incident and complex trauma.
Learning Objectives:
1.Define key terms related to trauma-informed and trauma-focused play therapy.
2.Understand how the mind and body experience the traumatic stress response.
3.Integrate body-based interventions in play therapy settings to help youth better regulate their responses to traumatic stress.

I thoroughly enjoyed Nicole's seminar. I appreciate her encouragement that not all client's bodies need calming regulatory exercises after trauma as some are experiencing the slower physiological or internal stress responses (i.e. freeze, shut down, dissociation). In these cases, clients need regulatory exercises that stimulate (rev) the body and brain to bring them back to stasis.
