Professional training is an important part of being an effective child, adolescent, and family therapist. The vast majority of university programs don't train you to work effectively with children and adolescents. Cathi Spooner, LCSW, RPT-S, and Renewing Hearts Counseling & Consulting offer specialized training for you to learn how to effectively utilize the power of expressive arts and play therapy with your clients.
In addition to professional training, it is important to learn how to implement the information learned from those trainings into “real time” clinical practice. Cathi Spooner, LCSW, RPT-S has worked in the mental health field with children, adolescents and families since 1988. Working in outpatient and residential treatment programs has provided her with the experience and knowledge necessary to help you effectively and confidently implement quality treatment for your clients experiencing even the most challenging problems. She has provided clinical supervision and consulting to mental health professionals and agencies serving children, adolescents and families. Showing them how to effectively implement play therapy and expressive arts modalities with integrity into their therapeutic milieu since 2007.
