🎯Finally, documentation that works with your play therapy, not against it.
 
Therapists know documentation is essential, but it can feel like a time-consuming chore that pulls focus from the child in the room. Worse, traditional paperwork often clashes with the heart of Child-Centered Play Therapy (CCPT), where the child—not a checklist—leads the way.
 
Play Therapy Documentation Essentials: A Child-Centered Approach to Case Conceptualization and Treatment Planning shows you how to make paperwork part of the therapeutic process. Developed by Rosie Newman, Director of Seattle Play Therapy, this resource offers proven strategies, ready-to-use tools, and customizable worksheets that keep the child at the center while meeting the needs of insurance companies and caregivers.
 
Clear, practical, and grounded in years of experience, this is the must-have guide for play therapists who want documentation to be as client-focused as their sessions.

In IFS, we talk a lot about parts – the protectors, the exiles – and, of course, the Self. But what about the parts that love to giggle, explore, and create? These playful parts are often the key to unlocking healing, especially in kids with a history of trauma.

In Playful Parts Work, you will find an innovative therapy framework that blends the non-pathologizing stance of IFS with the therapeutic power of play. Developed by Registered Play Therapist Carmen Jimenez-Pride, the playful parts model provides a means through which a child’s internal parts can emerge and express themselves through the natural language of play.
