Scottish Attachment in Action (SAIA) Annual Conference ‘Why Attachment Matters – In Play’ will take place on Friday 5 December from 9.30am—4pm at the Inchyra Grange Hotel, Polmont.
On the day, delagates will learn the principles of Theraplay, which is an adult-child play therapy, based on the natural patterns of healthy interaction between you and baby. It's used to establish or re-establish connections following loss, trauma or separation.
Other activities include:
• exploring the role of play in building trust
• demonstrating the practice of Theraplay® activities
• considering how to employ Theraplay® in your own practice
