What was your favorite childhood game? Monopoly? Twister? As adults we still find ourselves engaged in games in social settings from throwing darts with your friends to an outing at Dave & Busters. Games span across the lifespan and can be integrated in a variety of settings. Join us for this one day training to learn more about integrating games into the play therapy process.
