This is a recording from our 2024 summit. The tween and teen years are rife with intense social challenges in school, friendships, sports, and other activities where instances of teasing, bullying, social exclusion, and marginalization are unfortunately all too common. Social media has only made this behaviour easier and more insidious. But when kids aged 9 and up can be coached by a parent to respond effectively, manage their emotions in social situations, and recognize their own self-worth, they can reclaim a sense of their own power and develop skills like resilience, social and emotional intelligence, and compassion for life. Join Kim as he gives you strategies to give tweens and teens the tools to address the problem themselves and develop mastery over the situation—rather than having parents step in and try to "fix" things. He gives vital proactive strategies to help build strong family relationships, trust, and connection so kids can be better prepared for the inevitable social challenges life brings.

Play is to the child what talk is to the adult. Play therapy is a medium for expressing feelings, exploring relationships, describing experiences, disclosing wishes, and nurturing self-fulfillment. Children express themselves and their needs, relive their past, and connect with others through play. The use of toys enables children to transfer anxieties, fears, fantasies, and guilt to objects rather than people. In the process, children are safe from their own feelings and reactions because play enables children to distance themselves from traumatic events and experiences. In this podcast Tammy Schamuhn interviews Lisa Dion, Clinician, Registered Play Therapist, Co-Founder of Synergetic Play Therapy. We take a deep dive into what play therapy looks like, how it creates long-lasting changes in children, and where you can get appropriate training should you want to explore this medium in your clinical work.
