International Journal of Play Therapy26.2 (Apr 2017): 59-72.
Authors examine effects of child-centered play therapy (CCPT) within a service-research project. Students were referred for highly disruptive behavior by principals, with teacher input, following guidance through referral definitions and indicators provided by the authors. CCPT services were provided in high-poverty schools by counseling interns or beginning play therapists in close supervision. Findings include significant differences for treatment versus control groups and moderate to large effects from 9-session hours across total problems, externalizing, attention problems, and learning related self-efficacy, with no change in internalizing behaviors. Findings support the importance of CCPT in schools and other real-world settings for high-need children. To read the full article, log in using your NHS OpenAthens details.

Current neurodevelopmental research suggests that chronic and highly stressful environments and experiences, occurring during early development, have a strong negative impact on the neural architecture and overall brain development in young children. Evidence based practice suggests interventions which provide safe, relational, playful, regulatory directed, and repetitive sensory/motor qualities, geared to the developmental age of the child, will best meet child and family needs. Optimally meeting the needs of these children and their caregivers with a neurobiologically based approach requires a multidisciplinary team approach. Here we describe our multidisciplinary practice model and present the case of a “graduate” of our program. To read the full article, log in using your NHS OpenAthens details.
