The Definitive Guide to Theraplay (R) for Practitioners, officially
endorsed by the Theraplay (R) Institute Theraplay is an
intervention that focuses on enhancing the connection, trust and
joy between a child and a parent. It involves interactive, playful
activities using simple face-to-face reciprocal interactions, and
involves using all of the senses, including rhythm, movement and
touch. This comprehensive guide outlines the theory, reflection,
and skill development of the practitioner - the true power house of
Theraplay. By maintaining a focus on practice throughout, embedding
theory into practice examples, it brings the spirit of Theraplay to
life. Part 1 covers the key principles of the intervention; Part 2
addresses Theraplay in Practice: how to use the Marschak
Interaction Method (MIM), how to set up a room and choose
activities and considerations for working with different client
groups; Part 3 encourages the reader to engage in their own
development and the stages involved; and Parts 4 and 5 provide a
wealth of useful resources, checklists, handouts, sample sessions
and an up-to-date list of Theraplay activities. Whether you are a
Theraplay practitioner, or simply want to find out how this
remarkable intervention works, this book is essential reading.
Theraplay (R) is an attachment-focused model of parenting that
helps parents to understand and relate to their child. Based on a
sequence of play activities that are rooted in neuroscience,
Theraplay offers a fun and easy way for parents and children to
connect. Theraplay is particularly effective with looked after and
adopted children. By providing an overview of Theraplay and the
psychological principles that it is based on, parents and carers
will gain an understanding of the basic theory of the model along
with practical ideas for applying Theraplay to everyday family
life. Through everyday case studies and easy language, parents will
gain confidence and learn new skills for emotional bonding,
empathy, and acceptance in the relationship with their child.
