71 | Nurturing & Caregiving Theme In Play Therapy

In this episode I cover another in the Family & Nurturing category of play therapy themes... The Nurturing Theme. This is generally one of the later themes to emerge in a child's play over a complete treatment cycle, and it is very significant to notice when it does. Nurturing Theme is sometimes referred to as the Caregiving Theme.   Podcast HQ: https://www.playtherapypodcast.com Play Therapy Training HQ: https://www.playtherapynow.com Email me: brenna@thekidcounselor.com Follow me on Twitter: @thekidcounselor   https://twitter.com/thekidcounselor       References: Cochran, N., Nordling, W., & Cochran, J.
