Play Therapy Strategies through Telehealth
Krissy Perry
Speaker: Krissy Perry
Krissy Perry, LMHC, RPT-S currently serves as the Clinical Director for the Seattle, WA chapter of A Home Within. As a Registered Play Therapist for over 8 years, Krissy has extensive experience working with children and their families using play-based, attachment, and trauma-informed interventions.
Like many therapists around the globe, Krissy has faced the challenge in 2020 of transitioning her child and family therapy practice fully online. She has developed strategies for doing child and family play therapy via telehealth. In this workshop, Krissy will share what she has learned over the past 6 months and how play therapy work with families can be adapted to virtual formats.
Learning Objectives:
- Briefly describe play therapy.
- Identify 2 models of family play therapy.
- Explain 2 specific interventions to help families via tele-play therapy.
These events are free, and registration is available up until 24 hours prior to the start of the event. There is no penalty for cancellations. Content level is suitable for working mental health professionals with advanced degrees. There will be no breaks during the programs.
Live courses are interactive and recorded courses are non-interactive. In order to complete and receive credit for live courses, attendees must remain for the duration of each event and complete the course evaluation directly following each event. A link to the evaluation will be shared in the Zoom chat box during the live webinar. To earn home-study credits for recorded webinars, viewers must watch each course and complete the evaluation and posttest for each course. Viewers have 3 chances to pass the posttest with a score of 75% or higher. Once the evaluations or the evaluations and postttests are completed, we will generate and issue certificates via email within one week of completion.
Credit is calculated by the hours of the event (1 hour = 1 credit, 2 hours = 2 credits, etc.). The time it takes to complete the course evaluation and/or the posttest does not count toward CE credits.
To participate in a live webinar, a system that runs Zoom is required. To watch a recorded event for home-study, a system that plays recorded videos is required.
