2017, October 7 & 8 Introduction Working with Children in Therapy Sessions

The Kids are the future, and they need to have support from the family, school & society.

Giving Children support in therapy sessions will contribute to have happy adults in the future

The way to work with children in a therapy session could be a little different than working with adults. Professional therapists need to adjust their therapeutic tools to the level of children.

What You Will Learn:

The basic principles and practices will be covered through experiential exercises, discussion, and some personal exploration.

This will include:

• The paradoxical theory of change

• The magic of role playing with children

• Being open to the unexpected – magic happens

• Experiencing the Now: savouring and chewing

• The importance of being specific and concrete

• The creative void and change in the Here and Now

Also, we will explore an introduction to Gestalt work with children:

• Use of drawing and colors

• Sand play with children

• Music therapy

• Family sculpturing and more
