This workshop will describe in detail evocative drawing and
storytelling strategies in play therapy for children and adolescents.
These interventions can be used in individual, group or family sessions.
Participants will have opportunities for hands-on practice of some of the
interventions to directly experience the impact of these evocative
strategies. The evocative drawing and storytelling techniques have been
designed to access in a safe and carefully paced manner the resources of the
right hemisphere of the brain as described by the work of Allan Schore in recent
neurobiological and attachment research to promote healing, particularly
in abused and traumatized children.
