"Therapy of the Absurd": An Introduction to Play Therapy

Speaker: Michael Whitehead
CE Credits: 1.0

This course is provided by the Systemic Therapy Across the Lifespan Network; find out more and how to join at www.aamft.org/tin.


Play Therapy is an evidence-based intervention method that utilizes the natural language of children to accomplish therapeutic goals. The roots of Family Therapy included children in most, if not all, sessions to achieve the results of systemic therapy. A pioneer in family therapy, Dr. Nathan Ackerman, stated that, "without engaging the children in a meaningful interchange across the generations, there can be no family therapy." Family therapists often get little-to-no training in how to involve children in family therapy. This webinar will introduce Systemic Play Therapy as one intervention to use to start including children in family therapy sessions.

A Daughter Who Needs a Mother

This session, recorded in 1991 by the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy and digitally remastered in 2009, features Harry Aponte conducting a live, unedited therapy session with a family. The featured family is an African American mother and her children struggling with poverty and a legacy of deprivation. The session is a demonstration of the Eco-System Model, incorporating class, racial and ethnic experiences of both the family and therapist. Mother lacks confidence and skill to parent her children, forcing her 14-year-old daughter to do so. After running away from home to pursue the attention of older men, her actions culminate in a suicide gesture. An experience is created for the mother to reach out to her daughter. Approx. Time: 87 minutes

At Home Series: Maurizio Andolfi, MD

~//Images/Events/Maurizio Andolfi Headshot better one.jpg
In recent years, three methodologies of Couple Therapy have grown significantly: Cognitive-Behavioral, Psychoanalytic and Emotionally Focused. Very different in theory as well as in practice, they deal with couple dysfunctional dynamics ignoring or dismissing the possibility of enlarging the frame to include in therapy other significant family members. Our intergenerational approach, following the seminal ideas of Bowen, Williamson, Boszormenyi_Nagy and Framo aims to include In therapy either symbolically and physically members of the family of origin of each partner (parents and siblings) as well as their children in order to evaluate the quality of the intergenerational bonds and activate family resources.

Learning Objectives:

  • How and when to invite for special session members of family of origin as consultant of the therapist
  • How and when to invite the children of the couple in crisis as consultant of the therapist
  • How to work with the couple in order to restore mutual trust, respect and intimacy
