Course Description

This course will give you a foundational introduction to the Somatic Experiential Play Therapy modality created by Melissa Wetterlund and Sara Werner. 

Somatic Experiential Play Therapy is a modality that grounds in somatic, metaphorical play.  This course lays the groundwork to begin tracking the physiology of children during play by highlighting the principles of neuroscience and fight, flight, freeze, and collapse.  It also dives into the concept of metaphorical play including  how to begin to interpret the symbolism behind many common themes of play.

You will gain an understanding of what children's physiology is communicating during play and ways to respond to and support their nervous systems in the resolution of trauma.
