In this Lessons from the Playroom episode, Lisa again is joined by Andrea Davidson, Johanna Simmons, and Rachel Freeburg - three Certified Synergetic Play Therapists … but this time for a discussion on messes in the playroom and messy play - ooh, so much fun!  Tune in as they explore: How to explain and normalize to parents/caregivers that messes are ok; How to turn messes in the playroom into opportunities for boundaries, containment, and growth; Ways to support children when they need the expression or sensory experience of messy play; When to have a child clean up or not when messes happen (hint: it's about the child's treatment goals); Strategies for you as the therapist to stay in your window of tolerance with messes or messy play; and Understanding messes from the experience of Nervous System regulation/dysregulation.
