The objective of the clinical program training is to equip those with a relevant undergraduate degree to obtain further training in the area of child centred play therapy in order to apply this knowledge and skill to clinical practice. Our vision for providing child centred play therapy training in our local communities is to ensure practitioners are equipped to provide quality play therapy services to children across Australia.
We are thrilled to announce an exciting and valuable update to our clinical program!
Program now includes:
- an additional two-day advanced play therapy workshop
- up to date and expanded content to our original workshops
- opportunities for client placement
- 12 hours supervision as part of assessment and reflective exercises
Clinical Program Structure:
Workshop Two – Considering the structure and components of CCPT – three (3) day ONLINE workshop runs from 8:30am – 5:30pm.
Workshop Three – Issues in CCPT – three (3) day ONLINE workshop runs from 8:30am – 5:30pm.
Workshop Four – Competency in skill development and other types of CCPT – three (3) ONLINE workshop runs from 8:30am – 5:30pm.
Workshop Five – Beyond the Playroom – Extensions in Play Therapy – two (2) day ONLINE workshop runs from 8:30am – 5:30pm.
Placement – undertake a supervised placement of ten (10) sessions in duration with a suitable child**
Group Supervision – 12 hours of supervision included in program – requires attendance at group supervisions outside of workshops.
** The responsibility in locating and securing a suitable child resides with the student during the clinical program. Students are requested to view this placement as an adjunct to their clinical learning, therefore the selection of a client for placement should be made on the basis that the sessions will be an opportunity to practice CCPT skills, rather than provide clinical intervention services.
