MTCA Presents:

This introductory training explores how Child-Centered Play Therapy (CCPT) supports emotional regulation in young children and why it is considered the most developmentally appropriate therapeutic approach for ages 3–8. We’ll look at the “why” behind CCPT—how children communicate through play, what their brains can and cannot do at various stages, and why traditional talk-based methods often fall short for younger children.

TACES Presents:

DATE CHANGE- THIS WEBINAR WILL BE HELD ON 2/20/26!

During the rapidly changing cultural landscape in which we live, the supervisory relationship becomes an essential space for modeling and cultivating cultural responsiveness. This one-hour training explores the intersection of cultural humility and broaching in clinical supervision. Supervisors often encounter supervisees who struggle to recognize or initiate cultural dialogue with clients; these moments provide powerful opportunities to model the same openness, reflection, and courage supervisors hope to see in clinical work.

Participants will examine how supervisory dynamics can mirror those that arise in counseling relationships, and how attending to parallel process can strengthen both supervision and client care. Through case examples and guided reflection, this training highlights practical strategies for fostering supervisee growth in cultural awareness and broaching competence—even amid the uncertainty and stress of “unusual times.”

TACES Presents:

Effective supervision extends far beyond signing forms. It relies on intentional, ethical, and well-documented processes that foster professional growth and accountability. This education session will guide supervisors through the essential elements of supervision documentation, including contracts, evaluations, and supervision notes. Participants will explore the benefits of thorough documentation, learn best practices for maintaining clear and compliant records, and develop strategies for addressing documentation deficits with supervisees. Attendees will leave with practical tools to enhance both the quality and integrity of their supervision practices.
