Accelerate Theraplay Progress Using Video Feedback Techniques

November 3, 2022 @ 11:00 am - 2:00 pm CDT

$75
CEs Available: 3  (no APT or APA credit available)   |     One Day Training      |     Virtual

Reviewing videos of parents interacting with their children is a powerful means of working with families. The use of video enables therapists to “slow down the dance” between parents and children to uncover reflexive patterns that are often unconscious for parents. Video review with the therapist as a trusted guide, allows parents to take a step back from the parent-child relationship and look at what is happening in it with more objectivity, curiosity, and compassion.

Video analysis is already part of both the Marschak Interaction Method and Parent Only Sessions in the Theraplay treatment protocol. However, Video Intervention Therapy techniques provide innovative and impactful new ways to use parent-child videos as part of the Theraplay treatment process. This workshop will explain 7 steps of video analysis and give specific ways to use video with families to deepen therapeutic work, advance parent mentalization capacity and expedite treatment progress. Participants will begin using newly acquired information and skills immediately by having the opportunity to analyze parent-child dyad videos in the workshop.
