The Moment It All Clicked: Unexpected Paths to a Career in CCPT Play Therapy Podcast
-
- コース
In this episode, I share some fascinating unofficial data I collected from my email subscribers about their journeys to finding child-centered play therapy (CCPT). I was curious to learn more after noticing a pattern of people mentioning they came to CCPT as a second or third career.
The responses revealed an incredibly diverse range of prior careers - everything from nursing, teaching and social work to advertising, journalism, and even running a bed and breakfast! What united everyone was a deep desire to have a more direct therapeutic impact on children's lives. Many discovered CCPT almost by chance while researching how to effectively help kids. Across the board, finding CCPT was a pivotal, life-changing moment that brought profound personal and professional fulfillment.
However, many also cited challenges in accessing quality CCPT training. This highlights the crucial need for more educational opportunities and supportive communities for aspiring CCPTs. The stories shared in this episode reinforce that while the path to CCPT looks different for everyone, we are united by our heartfelt dedication to helping children heal, grow and thrive through this powerful modality. I'm so grateful to be part of this special field with all of you!
