Many youth who are struggling with self-regulation, anxiety, and overwhelm are referred to us for play therapy. Sometimes there is a missing piece to their treatment and support: they are autistic and no one knows. If you are trying your usual play therapy techniques with clients and aren’t seeing progress, if you’ve been interested in learning more about how to screen for autism, or if you believe you’re working with undiagnosed autistic adolescents, this training can strengthen your confidence and skills.
Join Kade Sharp, an autistic LICSW, Registered Play Therapist™, and Child Mental Health Specialist, as he explains the fundamentals of screening for autism, shifting your therapeutic style to meet the needs of autistic clients, and tailoring play therapy interventions to be affirming of autistic individuals.
Objectives:
Describe how to screen for autism during play therapy interventions and the play therapy process
Demonstrate how to modify common play therapy techniques and the play room to affirm autistic identities
Explain how play therapy techniques can support autistic clients in meeting their goals
