Places on workshops are strictly limited so early booking is advisable.
All workshops are one day events unless otherwise stated.
Please contact Alison Rowan at Children in Scotland for further details of these workshops and booking forms. The workshops will combine theory, discussion and experiential work, and are designed for professionals who are interested in therapeutic ways of working with children, and for those who wish to know more about play therapy. The tutor, Catherine Webster, is a qualified play therapist who also works as a play therapy trainer for child care organisations. This experiential workshop will explore the difficulties in playing that children with disabilities often have, and look at developing effective approaches to facilitating the play of children with disabilities. It will also provide an introduction to the uses of play therapy for children with disabilities, particularly in relation to the traumatic life events children with disabilities often experience.
