Next Level Play Therapy: A Podcast for Play Therapy Excellence

Send us a text

Congruence is such a nice sounding therapy word when thinking about how to be the best version of yourself in play therapy sessions.

(I have visions of unicorns and happily ever after music playing in my head 🦄 🎶)

Sounds so easy, right?

But it’s easier said than done.

No one can be 100% congruent with their clients (or their kids, or their partners, or their friends - you get the point) all of the time. It’s impossible.

What are things that interfere with being congruent with your clients in play therapy sessions and keep you from getting the best outcomes for your young clients?

Join me for this free weekly podcast. For this week’s podcast episode, I’ll talk about barriers to being congruent in sessions and how you can learn to be more congruent so you can get amazing outcomes in play therapy with your clients.
