Not Just Play? What does that mean? Play is the language of children. In a healing environment when kids play in session, it is "not just play" but therapy. Play relieves feelings of stress and boredom, connects us to people in a positive way, stimulates creative thinking and exploration, regulates our emotions, and boosts our ego. (Landreth 2002).
In addition to being a Registered Play Therapist Supervisor, Robin is trained in both EMDR and certified in Trauma Informed Care by the VA NASW to further help those who have experienced significant stressors in their past.
Robin supervises Master of Social Work clinical students from Virginia Commonwealth University and candidates for licensure as a clinical social work (LCSW) in Virginia.
