Being a supervisor isn’t easy! Do you ever find yourself wondering if your play therapist in training is truly prepared to work independently?
Are you looking for ways to make supervision feel more engaging, effective, and even enjoyable?
Supervision should be more than just a requirement—it should be an inspiring, confidence-building process for both you and your play therapist in training.
At The Willow’s Crown, we offer dynamic, hands-on supervision training designed to help you trust yourself more, eliminate the guesswork, and create a meaningful supervision experience.
As an APT and NBCC Approved Provider, we invite you to join us for an engaging, experiential training where you will walk away with practical strategies, creative tools, and a renewed sense of confidence in your supervision skills.
Imagine no longer questioning whether your play therapist in training is on the right track. Imagine feeling calm, prepared, and assured in your ability to guide and mentor.
This Training is Designed to Help You:
- Take the stress out of supervision with clear, actionable strategies
- Turn mandatory play observations into valuable learning tools
- Learn creative ways to make group supervision both fun and educational
- Feel more confident in assessing where your supervisee is developmentally
- Increase your own self-care while supporting others.
This isn’t just another supervision training—this is an opportunity to learn, grow, and feel empowered in your role as a leader.
Supervision doesn’t have to be draining—it can be fulfilling, rewarding, and even life-giving
