34 | Q&A: How Do You Do Child-Centered Play Therapy With Older Kids (11-14 Year Olds)

Season 1 Episode 34 Published 3 years, 1 month ago
Description
In this episode I respond to a listener, Rachel, who asked "I would be interested to learn more about child-centered play therapy with older kids (like 11-14). You've mentioned before at your facility that you do kind of a 'modified' version for older kids and I would love to learn more!
 
Here are the three main points of my response to Rachel:
 
  • We use the same skills
  • Activities vs toys
  • Dedicated area
