Divorce Play Therapy Training

Finally, a CE course that doesn't just tick a box - it transforms your work with divorce
and separation in the playroom.

Here's what you really need.

🗸 You need support. The practical step-by-step roadmap that actually works, starting with the policies, procedures, and legal protections you need at intake to create the safety and trust to actually do the therapy.

🗸 You need the play therapy interventions that don't just scratch the surface but go deep to create meaningful healing for the trauma of divorce.

🗸 You need the scripts for those hard conversations with parents and a plan that helps you show up as the calm in the chaos - without completely burning yourself out in the process.

If you're nodding along - this training was made for you my friend. This is the step-by-step training that gives you real tools and real confidence.

This isn't a surface-level CE or a “check the box” training — because let's be honest, you can't cram the depth, nuance, and clinical skill needed for divorce work into a 60-minute webinar. It’s clinical depth, legal clarity, and tools you’ll use again and again.
