CompassionWorks offers excellent training and the ability to practice learned skills through their two-weekend, online training. They also offer in-person trainings for those who learn better in that modality.

Reach out to Mr. Jordan Shafer and his team:
The AutPlay Therapy framework highlights neurodiversity affirming and informed constructs within the therapeutic powers of play and seminal play therapy theories and approaches. Emphasis is placed on understanding and addressing mental health needs for neurodivergent children and adolescents.
This training provides awareness for the play therapist in working with neurodivergent children and adolescents and how to be in healthy, safe, and affirming therapeutic relationship. Participants learn how to conceptualize the neurodivergent child's spectrum of presentation and how to assess for needs (therapy goals).

Reach out to Dr. Robert Jason Grant and his team:
Owned by Ms. Bianca Kisselburg, Playful Connection Sandtray Institute offers a small group environment for learning the ins and outs of working with clients in this modality.
