Have you ever felt like your client doesn’t seem to be making progress and you’ve tried everything to get back on track?

You looked through all your play therapy activity books and resources to find an activity that will work.

You looked on Pinterest and scoured the internet for ideas.

You tried implementing ideas from the recent training you attended with limited success.

You tried talking to your supervisor and colleagues to get ideas but nothing seemed to work because they don’t use play therapy and weren’t much help other than to try to cheer you on for morale support.

Let’s say you’re stuck in a loop of “I don’t know if this is helping.”

It feels awful to think you’re failing your client.

If that’s you, then don’t miss this week’s free weekly podcast! I’m going to share 4 tips for what to do when you’re not sure play therapy is working for your client and how to get unstuck when you feel like nothing is working.
