The use of humor is like other counseling techniques: it can hurt or it can heal. This session will examine when and how humor can be used in counseling across the life span, considering multicultural factors and other variables, such as age, sexuality and ability. The focus will be on how humor can help clients in multiple circumstances broaden their perspectives, become more positive and lighthearted and find meaningfulness, balance and levity in their lives. Evidence-based research will be discussed as well as case studies.

So, What is Play Therapy and Why Should We Care?

Play therapy is usually used as an intervention approach for working with young children who lack the abstract verbal abilities to articulate their difficulties clearly enough to receive support and assistance from counselors. Play therapy seems to work with children experiencing a broad range of difficulties. It can also be used as a modality to help older children, adolescents, and adults who would benefit from a fun, nonthreatening, creative expressive arts form of therapy.
