Play therapy for all

I spent the last 2 years finishing graduate school and working. In that time, I have had to start my play therapy practice on the cheap side. I started a page to celebrate and share the ideas that I have come across to create meaningful play moments. I also work with families who are very low income and homeless. This has made me tap into my creative side to assist grown ups in supporting the play of their youngsters. Enjoy!
