As promised in the last episode, I'm going to go over 6 assessments that can support your work in the playroom. I frequently hear from play therapists that they don't feel supported by peers or employers, or that play therapy is treated as an inferior modality to the more traditional models. Using assessments is one way that you can "prove" the efficacy of your work in your playroom with your clients, and begin to persuade your peers and our field that play therapy should be regarded on equal footing.
