ADHD is often misunderstood by parents, teachers, and other professionals. It is further complicated by frequent secondary symptoms. In this training, participants will learn a better understanding of what ADHD is and how to use play therapy to help kids facing the challenges that accompany ADHD. 
 
This topical series on play therapy is meant to give therapists new tools and expand their repertoire of techniques for specific client issues of concern. Therapy with kids and adolescents is different, and it requires learning new arenas & languages to facilitate growth and healing. Play therapy allows us to meet kids & adolescents where they are in development, and empower them through methods they are familiar with. These Play Therapy classes are built on sound therapeutic theory and will focus on the application of specific play therapy tools through demonstration and interaction.
