“Play Therapy Training” to be given in Mardin

Child Centered Play Therapy Training is organized in cooperation with Artuklu Mardin Guidance and Research Center and Istanbul Gelisim University (IGU). The three-day trainings will be open to the participation of all psychological counsellors in Mardin.

Child-Centered Play Therapy Trainings, which will be open to the participation of all psychological counsellors, will start in Mardin between October 11th and 13th. The trainings to be given by Psychotherapist and Psychological Counsellor Elif Macit are organized by Artuklu Mardin Guidance and Research Center and Istanbul Gelisim University.

“ADULT THERAPY CAN’T BE IMPLEMENTED TO CHILDREN”

Talking about the importance of play therapy, Psychotherapist and Psychological Counsellor Elif Macit said that children are different from adults in understanding and speaking their emotions, emphasizing that the form of therapy performed in adults would not suit children.

“CHILDREN EXPRESS EMOTIONS MORE EASILY IN THE PLAY ENVIRONMENT”

Underlining that the environment in which children can express themselves most comfortably is 'games', Macit said, "We call play therapy the method that focuses on children's expression of their needs through games and toys. In the play environment that the child is used to, it is easier for them to express their experiences and feelings. “Play therapists encourage children to play as they want as they are trained to create a safe environment for children.”
The training will take place face to face.
