Child-Centered Play Therapy is an evidence-based therapeutic intervention for children that helps children express feelings, resolve presenting issues, heal trauma, develop emotional regulation and problem-solving skills, and enhance self-esteem. Play has deep meaning to a child’s internal world and it is the process of externalizing these images through play witnessed by a skilled therapist who is fully present that growth and healing occur. Christopher is a Certified Play Therapist Supervisor.
8:1 participant-to-leader ratio, experiential with direct observation and feedback from instructor.
“I feel very well prepared after completing the child-centered play therapy intensive training. I found the balance of discussion, review of skills, and role-plays enhanced my learning experience profoundly. Receiving direct feedback was incredibly helpful for my learning and has helped prepare me to use these skills in my professional practice. Chris was an excellent instructor and walked through all questions and possible scenarios based on his extensive experience as well as provide clinical experiences which helped tie material together.” – Courtney

Filial Therapy is effective in facilitating positive and long-lasting child and family change. Therapists learn how to train and supervise parents as they conduct special child-centered play sessions with their own children. The Intensive Filial Therapy Training Program developed by Dr. Risë VanFleet features the work of Filial Therapy originators, Drs. Bernard and Louise Guerney. Christopher is a Certified Filial Therapy Instructor.
6:1 participant-to-instructor ratio, experiential with direct observation and feedback from instructor.
“He and I have co-led an Intensive Filial Therapy training a couple years ago. I am happy to fully endorse him as a trainer in Filial Therapy.” – Risë VanFleet
“This is by far the best training I’ve ever taken. It’s so relevant and meaningful. Chris is a gracious, generous, highly skilled and knowledgeable instructor. He models what he teaches throughout the training and it so natural to him that we didn’t even notice until day 3! Learning the Filial Therapy skills is hard. Using the techniques of role plays, feedback, discussion, video examples and traditional lecturing, made the Filial Therapy skills obtainable. We all left this training knowing we could offer this type of support to families in the agencies we work for. The training was fun, and I learned so much. I highly recommend this course!” – Diane
