Webinar Description:
Transracial adoptions come with layers of issues to address including building a multicultural bridge within the adoptive family. Play therapists can benefit from understanding the potential roadblocks in supporting transracial adoptive families. This can include integrating attachment-based play therapy interventions to enhance the caregiver-child relationship such as filial therapy and Child-Parent Relationship Therapy. This webinar will explore play-based interventions to integrate racial socialization messages in family play therapy, as well as considerations for the school-based play therapist when implementing individual and group play therapy with transracial adoptive students.
Learning Objectives:
-
Identify play-based interventions to promote racial socialization messages in transracial adoptive families.
