SUMMARY:Promoting Engagement for Withdrawn Children 
DESCRIPTION:Online\, On-Demand Workshop \n\n\n\nThe child within the home or classroom that is often noticed first or identified for needing extra help and support is the outgoing\, loud\, active\, intense\, and aggressive child. \n\n\n\nThese are children whose behaviors show their wants\, needs\, and emotional states – and it’s often easy to identify and intervene as needed. Children who are quieter or more subdued in social settings are typically more unassuming\, cautious\, and careful. They are the ones who are sometimes overlooked as needing extra help or support. They tend to follow rules and cause less disruptions. \n\n\n\nAdults and teachers often perceive them as anxious\, frightened\, or quiet and reserved. They are less inclined to initiate interaction or take command of a situation\, however this way of being also has incredible benefits and potential. \n\n\n\nJoin us for this important training to explore engagement with the withdrawn child as well as tips and techniques to ensure that the interactions are positive and beneficial. \n\n\n\nThis training is designed for parents\, caregivers\, teachers\, and school personnel.  \n\n\n\nIn this training\, you will learn about: \n\n\n\n\nContributing reasons for withdrawn behaviors\n\n\n\nPotential concerns/challenges and warning signs when a child is withdrawn\n\n\n\nTips and techniques to encourage engagement\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nATTENTION: Palm Beach County parents\, teachers\, and caregivers: Use the CODE: AWOPBC to waive the fee! \n\n\n\nA special thank you to the Florida Blue Foundation\, Early Learning Coalition of Palm Beach County\, and Children’s Services Council of Palm Beach County for supporting this training for teachers\, and educators in Palm Beach County. This workshop is a part of our A Way of Being with Children series focusing on children ages birth to 5.

SUMMARY:The Power of the Parent-Teacher Relationship 
DESCRIPTION:Online\, On-Demand Workshop \n\n\n\nBoth parents and teachers play a vital role in educating a child. Parents are children’s first teacher as they teach children essential life and academic skills while providing love and support. The connection and communication between teachers and parents become very important in any school setting\, including early education settings. \n\n\n\nYoung children are very attuned with their parents\, teachers and caregivers and read their cues well. So\, when their teacher and parents are connected and have a positive and strong relationship\, children are more likely to feel safe in their relationships with their teachers and have more positive attitude towards their teacher\, center or school\, and learning. Effective communication is essential for building school-family partnerships. It constitutes the foundation for all other forms of family involvement in education. \n\n\n\nJoin us for this 30-minute online training to explore the benefits of building parent-teacher relationship\, as well as different ways of communicating with parents.  \n\n\n\nThis training is designed for parents\, caregivers\, teachers\, and school personnel.  \n\n\n\nIn this training\, you will learn about: \n\n\n\n\nBenefits of building parent-teacher relationship\n\n\n\nDifferent ways of communicating with parents\n\n\n\nTechniques and strategies to communicate more effectively with parents to build strong relationships with them\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nATTENTION: Palm Beach County parents\, teachers\, and caregivers: Use the CODE: AWOPBC to waive the fee! \n\n\n\nA special thank you to the Florida Blue Foundation\, Early Learning Coalition of Palm Beach County\, and Children’s Services Council of Palm Beach County for supporting this training for teachers\, and educators in Palm Beach County.

SUMMARY:The Power of Play

SUMMARY:Termination in Play Therapy
DESCRIPTION:Online\, On-Demand Workshop \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	Termination is a crucial aspect of any therapy process and can be difficult for both client and therapist. However\, when done successfully\, the end of therapy can be a positive experience with a long-lasting impact on both the client and therapist. Termination of therapy is an opportunity for closure and for the client and therapist to review the personal growth that has unfolded over the course of treatment. \nTermination of services with children in a Play Therapy setting can also be more challenging as children may experience termination differently compared to adult or teenage clients due to multiple factors including but not limited to their developmental stage\, past and current experiences\, environmental factors\, and relationships they have with other adults in their lives. The termination process can be particularly difficult and triggering for child clients who have experienced prior loss\, trauma\, or other adverse life experiences. Termination may bring up feelings related to these past adverse or traumatic experiences\, especially prior experiences with loss and grief. \nTherapeutic work with children should always involve working with caregivers of the children. Therefore\, terminating the therapy process includes terminating the relationship with the client and the client’s caregivers. Play Therapists\, even if only working with younger individuals\, should have the knowledge and skills to successfully end the therapy process with both children and adults. \nObjectives \n\n   * Describe the importance of proper termination in Play Therapy.\n   * Identify procedures of ending the Play Therapy experience.\n   * Explain the process of terminating therapeutic relationship between clients and therapists in the playroom.\n   * List at least 3 termination activities to use in Play Therapy.\n\n\n\n\n\nCost: $25 (1 hour play therapy non-contact APT CE and 1 State of Florida CEU included). Student discounts are available: Please email us with your name\, school\, and a request for a 30% student discount code. Note: Play Therapy credit may not be awarded to non-mental health professionals. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nUpon registration\, you will have 30 days of 24/7 on-demand access to the workshop. \n\n\n\nAbout the Presenter \n\n\n\nNida Paul\, LMHC\, NCC\, RPT-S \n\n\n\nNida Paul is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor\, National Certified Counselor\, and Registered Play Therapist who has worked with children and families since 2010\, with a primary focus on working with young children and their parents\, caregivers\, and families. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNida received her Master’s of Science Degree in Mental Health Counseling from Nova Southeastern University and has training in Child-Centered Play Therapy (CCPT)\, Group Play Therapy\, Infant Mental Health\, Child-Parent Psychotherapy (CPP)\, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)\, and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.  \n\n\n\nIn addition to her role as the Director of the Childcare and Community Social-Emotional Wellness (CCSEW) Program for several years\, Nida was a supervisor within Center for Child Counseling’s Education and Prevention Services overseeing interns and providing Play Therapy and Trauma-Informed Care training around Palm Beach County and the state. \n\n\n\nNida is passionate about working with children and families who experienced trauma and helping them heal – and sharing her knowledge and experience through training others in the field. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCenter for Child Counseling is approved by the Association for Play Therapy\, APT Approved Provider #09-263.

SUMMARY:Assessment\, Intake\, and Treatment Goals with Children with Sexual Behavior Problems: Utilizing Play Therapy and other Expressive Approaches 
DESCRIPTION:The goal of this workshop is to help play therapists and other clinicians identify and address the unique challenges of assessing and treating children with sexual behavior problems. This workshop will provide a range of information including definitions\, types of sexual behavior problems\, and most importantly\, how to differentiate between normative sexual development and sexual behavior problems. The presenter will emphasize the importance of using a brief child-friendly assessment process utilizing play therapy approaches so that play therapists learn how to address referral concerns directly with children\, and at the same time gauge their willingness to participate with others about these issues. Treatment principles that utilize play and other expressive therapies will be described\, and clearly linked to specific target goals with this population.

SUMMARY:Prescriptive Play Therapy for Attachment Wounds
DESCRIPTION:Play therapists are often at loss when treating attachment wounds. We will take a prescriptive approach to play therapy treatment of attachment wounds\, using neurosequential thinking and play therapy techniques and attachment-focused modalities to support gradual change.  Our goal will be for clinicians to increase the intentional use of the self in these encounters with children (and their caregivers). \n\n\n\nWe will also focus on developing an in-depth case formulation and treatment plan and apply Child-Centered\, Gestalt and other play therapy approaches within a prescriptive framework based on the current literature on polyvagal theory\, developmental trauma and attachment and discuss the complications therapists may encounter in using trauma approaches to heal “attachment trauma”. Inviting the family/caregivers into these attachment focused play therapy activities will increase their ability to mentalize for the child and allow for improved relationships at home\, school and in the community.
