Listen "Episode 12: Limit Setting in CCPT - The ACT Method"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of the Play Therapy Circle podcast, Kylie Ellison introduces the concept of limit setting in child-centered play therapy (CCPT), focusing on the ACT model (Acknowledge feelings, Communicate the limit, Target alternatives). She reflects on her own challenges learning this skill, reassures beginning play therapists that it becomes easier with practice, and emphasizes that limits build safety, structure, and trust in the playroom. Ultimately, Kylie highlights how consistent and empathetic limit setting not only protects therapists, children, and resources but also fosters emotional regulation, self-responsibility, and respectful relationships.
