The Universal Efficacy of CCPT: How to Address Doubters

In this episode of the Play Therapy Podcast, I respond to a question from Nicole in Indiana about finding research that compares child-centered play therapy (CCPT) with other types of therapy. Nicole, whose manager is skeptical of CCPT's broad applicability, especially for issues outside trauma, asked for research to support CCPT's effectiveness across various child needs. Instead of a comparison, I discuss how research shows CCPT's success with a range of issues—from ADHD and anxiety to cultural diversity and speech disorders. I highlight Child-Centered Play Therapy Research, edited by Baggerly, Ray, and Bratton, as a comprehensive resource for defending the universal efficacy of CCPT. I also encourage listeners to confidently advocate for CCPT in the face of skepticism by seeking out studies specific to their clients' needs. CCPT's effectiveness spans ages, cultural backgrounds, and conditions, making it a powerful, evidence-supported approach. Episode Reference: Baggerly, J. N., Ray, D. C., & Bratton, S. C. (Eds.).

In this episode, I address a question from Barbara in California about how to explain to others that child-centered play therapy can work for any child. This is a crucial topic because it helps justify our work and the effectiveness of the child-centered model. Barbara shares her experience at a California agency where her supervisor initially supported her interest in child-centered play therapy but now suggests incorporating other methods, claiming child-centered doesn't work for every client. However, Barbara hasn't been given specific examples of when child-centered wouldn't be suitable. I emphasize the importance of understanding and articulating the efficacy of child-centered play therapy to others, especially when faced with skepticism. I recommend using evidence-based resources such as the book "Child-Centered Play Therapy Research" edited by Jennifer Baggerly, Dee Ray, and Sue Bratton, which provides empirical evidence supporting the effectiveness of child-centered play therapy across various populations. Additionally, I discuss the challenges of switching between therapeutic models and the importance of maintaining consistency and trust in the child-centered approach. I also debunk the notion that child-centered play therapy is easier or less clinically driven, highlighting its depth and long-term benefits. Overall, I encourage Barbara and other practitioners to trust in the evidence and confidently advocate for the child-centered model.   Podcast HQ: https://www.playtherapypodcast.com Play Therapy Training HQ: https://www.playtherapynow.com APT Approved Play Therapy CE courses: https://childcenteredtraining.com Email me: brenna@thekidcounselor.com Follow me on Twitter: @thekidcounselor   https://twitter.com/thekidcounselor   References: Baggerly, J.

Hear veteran risk manager, advisor and professor Clifford Rossi's viewpoints on trends, threats and opportunities in the commercial and residential real estate markets.  The past couple of years have been an extremely challenging time for risk practitioners charged with measuring and managing real estate risk. In both commercial real estate and residential real estate, concerns have been raised globally about interest rates, inflation and economic uncertainty. Indeed, in a recent Federal Reserve survey on salient risks – part of the Fed's October Financial Stability Report – roughly 75 percent of respondents cited the potential for “large losses on CRE and residential real estate.” CRE, more specifically, has been plagued by escalating vacancy rates for office buildings, thanks in part to the remote work trend that started during the pandemic and has since taken off. Residential real estate, meanwhile, has dealt with worries about housing affordability. As a former CRO at multiple banks and as an ex-senior risk manager at Fannie Mae and Freddi Mac, Cliff Rossi, our honored guest today, knows all about the CRE and residential real estate risks facing financial institutions today. Cliff, the current Director of the Smith Enterprise Risk Consortium at the University of Maryland (UMD), speaks with GARP editorial director Robert Sales about global real estate concerns and challenges, and offers advice on how firms can more effectively manage their exposures.   SPEAKER'S BIO: Clifford Rossi (PhD) is the Director of the Smith Enterprise Risk Consortium at the University of Maryland (UMD) and a Professor-of-the-Practice and Executive-in-Residence at UMD's Robert H. Smith School of Business. He is also the author of GARP's monthly “CRO Outlook” column. Prior to entering academia, Rossi had nearly 25 years of experience in banking and government, having held senior executive roles in risk management at several of the largest financial services companies. His most recent position was Managing Director and Chief Risk Officer for Citigroup's Consumer Lending Group, where he was responsible for overseeing the risk of a $300+B global portfolio of mortgage, home equity, student loans and auto loans with 700 employees under his direction. While there he was intimately involved in Citi's TARP and stress test activities. He also served as Chief Credit Officer at Washington Mutual (WaMu) and as Managing Director and Chief Risk Officer at Countrywide Bank. Previous to these assignments, Rossi held senior risk management positions at Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. He started his career during the thrift crisis at the U.S. Treasury's Office of Domestic Finance and later at the Office of Thrift Supervision working on key policy issues affecting depositories. Rossi was also an adjunct professor in the Finance Department at the Robert H. Smith School of Business for eight years and has numerous academic and nonacademic articles on banking industry topics. Rossi is frequently quoted on financial policy issues in major newspapers and has appeared on such programs as C-SPAN's Washington Journal and CNN's Situation Room. His book for risk practitioners and graduate students, A Risk Professional's Survival Guide, was published in 2014 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. His research interests are in financial and nonfinancial risk management, risk governance and analytics and climate risk.

Risk Management's Latest Trial by Crisis

Hear veteran risk manager, advisor and professor Clifford Rossi's perspective on recent turmoil in the banking system, on where risk management fell short, and the profession's readiness for future challenges. The collapse of Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) and subsequent events inevitably invited comparisons with past crises. It was widely assumed that the damages of 2023 would be more contained than those of the Great Financial Crisis of 2008. But they could similarly leave a long tail, with economic and regulatory repercussions well into the future. A clear parallel between 2008 and 2023 is the spotlight placed on risk management. In the intervening years, the risk function in banking and financial services grew in prestige and responsibility – and its failings were documented as having played a role in SVB's demise. Drawing from regulatory experience early in his career, to senior risk and credit positions at major financial institutions, to his current professorship at the University of Maryland, Cliff Rossi has lived through multiple crises while observing the effectiveness and evolution of risk management. GARP Risk Intelligence's CRO Outlook columnist, Rossi has been especially critical of boards of directors' risk governance, one of many timely subjects covered in his podcast conversation with GARP contributing editor Jeff Kutler. SPEAKER'S BIO Clifford Rossi (PhD) is an Executive-in-Residence and Professor of the Practice at the Robert H. Smith School of Business, University of Maryland. He is also the author of GARP's monthly “CRO Outlook” column. Prior to entering academia, Rossi had nearly 25 years of experience in banking and government, having held senior executive roles in risk management at several of the largest financial services companies. His most recent position was Managing Director and Chief Risk Officer for Citigroup's Consumer Lending Group, where he was responsible for overseeing the risk of a $300+B global portfolio of mortgage, home equity, student loans and auto loans with 700 employees under his direction. While there he was intimately involved in Citi's TARP and stress test activities. He also served as Chief Credit Officer at Washington Mutual (WaMu) and as Managing Director and Chief Risk Officer at Countrywide Bank. Previous to these assignments, Rossi held senior risk management positions at Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. He started his career during the thrift crisis at the U.S. Treasury's Office of Domestic Finance and later at the Office of Thrift Supervision working on key policy issues affecting depositories. Rossi was also an adjunct professor in the Finance Department at the Robert H. Smith School of Business for eight years and has numerous academic and nonacademic articles on banking industry topics. Rossi is frequently quoted on financial policy issues in major newspapers and has appeared on such programs as C-SPAN's Washington Journal and CNN's Situation Room. His book for risk practitioners and graduate students, A Risk Professional's Survival Guide, was published in 2014 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. His research interests are in financial and nonfinancial risk management, risk governance and analytics and climate risk.

Food prices rose 13% in 2022. Yet American's waste about $218 billion of food the U.S. and food is the single largest component taking up space inside of our landfills. RDN Rosanne Rust offers practical ways to reduce food waste in the home to save money and help the environment.  A prolific writer, she's published eight books, including several in the popular For Dummies® series, including her latest include Zero Waste Cooking For Dummies® (Jan 2022, John Wiley & Sons), and the 2nd edition of DASH Diet For Dummies® (November 2020). Rosanne  believe's there's more than one way to consume a healthy diet. "We understand the big picture, including human physiology, human nutrition, and food science. We take behavior into account and understand how to help people make changes that they can accept. We also understand how to evaluate the evidence and put diet into perspective for overall health. People come up with strict rules. They hear so many soundbites of misinformation (like "sugar is toxic", "carbs are killing you", "organic is best". This all-or-nothing approach is affecting the mental health of many people who may feel they are failing because they aren't reaching some unrealistic goal. At a time when food budgets (and all budgets) are tightening, we need to take this fear away. And also help those who HAVE a choice (to shop at fancy food stores) to understand that demonizing the rest (with no evidence of inferiority) is detrimental to everyone." Rosanne received her bachelor's degree in Dietetics from Indiana University of Pennsylvania, and her M.S. in Nutrition from the University of Pittsburgh. Owner of Rust Nutrition Services, she provides a variety of nutrition communication services. Her philosophy has always been to take a fad-free, doable approach to healthy eating, in order to help people put food and nutrition into perspective and set realistic health goals.

  It is easier now than ever before to get a book published but there is still a lot of misconceptions and bad information out there about what you'll need to do and what others will help you with in order to have a successful book.   To ensure our listeners get only the best information we've invited Matt Holt, Editor-in-Chief of Matt Holt Books (a BenBella Books Imprint) to join us. Matt was previously Senior Vice President and Executive Publisher at John Wiley & Sons, where he oversaw a team of 85 staff. Over his 27-year career, he's acquired over 1,000 titles and published 10,000 titles! We start with the questions you need to answer before you even set pen to paper. Matt believes you need to know the goal of the book, why you are writing it, and what publishing model will best suits your business. Having had literally thousands of proposals cross his desk Matt is able to know within 30 minutes if he wants to explore a proposal further. Matt shares what he is looking for in a proposal and even the methods he uses to look into a potential author beyond the pages turned into him. Last, we discuss the tension that often exists between author and publisher. The author is making a long-term multi-year connection while the publisher will need to move onto the next project before long. Matt explains what both sides can do to provide the transparency that will be needed for everyone to achieve their goals. If you want to ensure your proposal doesn't get discarded into the “pass” pile you'll want to listen to this episode. Three Key Takeaways: · You can get a book done quickly and cheaply, or you can get it done right. · Thought Leaders who are also practitioners often have an advantage in promoting their books as they already are in direct contact with their audience. · A book is a mass-market tool, you'll need methods of taking your content to scale if you want to fully capitalize on your book launch.

All That To Say
How can philosophy help us think about the boom in musical copyright cases?

It’s just me today approaching the issue of a boom in copyright lawsuits in the music industry. In light of these lawsuits, I ask: is copyright law serving artists the way it’s supposed to? To find out, we need to think about what the purpose of copyright law is and whether it is fulfilling or stifling this purpose. To do so, I look philosophical theories of property and apply them to musical copyright to help us reason through this problem.This is a project for my intellectual property law class that I took this semester at UBC under Professor Jon Festinger. Thank you to Professor Festinger for teaching the class! I hope my listeners and newsletter subscribers enjoy as well.

Creating a Content Strategy

Messaging on a Mission

Although we all believe—and know—that reinventing the wheel is bad, we all do it none-the-less. Why is that? Most often it's because we don't think we have enough time to stop and think about our work more broadly. The content we produce certainly falls into that category. So in addition to having a well-thought-out messaging strategy, our guest today gives us clear steps on how to repurpose content smartly and efficiently.   Episode Guest(s): Stephanie Cory, CAP®, CFRE, is Principal of Stephanie Cory Consulting. She has dedicated her career to the nonprofit sector for nearly 20 years. She has served as an executive director for a health advocacy organization as well as held development and program management roles for organizations serving seniors and people with disabilities. She expanded programming, strengthened infrastructure, and grew fundraising revenue in these roles. Stephanie is an adjunct faculty member for Villanova University's College of Professional Studies where she teaches fundraising. She is also is a BoardSource Certified Governance Consultant and a Licensed Standards for Excellence® Consultant. Stephanie authored a chapter on boards and fundraising for the second edition of The Handbook of Board Governance, which was published by John Wiley & Sons in 2020.   Key Takeaways: The goal is to think about what makes your organization unique and what do you want to put out there? What, what do you want to talk about?   Decide your content's tone of voice: Are you serious and research-focused? Are you lighthearted and friendly? Certainly grant applications are a different animal, but your website should and your fundraising appeals should reflect who you are.   Introduce board members to all the programs, but let them find the ones that resonated the most with them and go in depth on those. They can talk about them with a better sense of understanding.   With board members and employees, try to engender an understanding and appreciation for social media. Help them understand how it works and why it's important to the organization. Then, provide them with content to share.   Ensure a robust new board member training program from the beginning and include instructions on how to (and not to) reuse the content you produce.   Consider having a content library beyond grants, but be certain to not simply repeat content verbatim each time.   For new executive directors, think about what content responsibilities you can outsource and which you cannot.     Useful Links: stephanie@stephaniecory.com LinkedIn.com/in/stephaniecory/ StephanieCory.com The Handbook of Board Governance
