Temple University will be presenting a 6 hour workshop on the history of play therapy at three locations throughout Pennsylvania this spring. The presenter is Jean Camberg, LCSW, RPT-S, and the training will be offered on Saturday, March 28, at Temple University Harrisburg, on Saturday, April 25, in DuBois, PA, and on a date to be announced in May or June in the Pittsburgh area. The cost of the training is $99.00. This training will meet the APT requirements for registration as a play therapist. Contact Jean at jcamberg@verizon.net with questions. Training on history has been identified as the hardest piece of the requirements to find.
