Theraplay: Healing Through Play With Your Children With Dafna Lender

Ever wonder if your trauma means you're destined to parent imperfectly? In today's episode, Theraplay expert Dafna Lender shares how all parents mess up - and that's actually okay!As a clinical psychologist and post-traumatic parent myself, I was fascinated by Dafna's perspective on how we can provide healthy childhoods despite our own wounds. She compassionately explains why parents with trauma histories often experience such crushing self-doubt and offers practical ways to rebuild connection through play. What struck me most was Dafna's story about a mother and adopted daughter who transformed their relationship over two years of treatment - proving healing is possible even in the most challenging circumstances. If you've ever frozen during a parenting moment, felt triggered by your child's behavior, or wondered if you're "too damaged" to parent well, this conversation will reassure you that repair is always possible. You'll learn why those moments when your kids push your buttons can become opportunities for growth rather than shame.Topics covered on Theraplay:How does parental trauma affect our ability to be responsive to our children's needs?Why do we feel like our children are "triggering" us, and what can we do about those moments?What happens when professionals exclude parents from their child's therapy sessions?How can theraplay help rebuild damaged relationships between parents and children?Why do parents without secure attachment models experience more self-doubt?How can we explain our trauma responses to our children in age-appropriate ways?How long does it really take to repair damaged attachments between parents and children?Connect with me on Instagram @dr.koslowitzpsychology and don't forget to subscribe to our YouTube channel Post Traumatic Parenting.For full show notes and more resources visit https://www.drrobynkoslowitz.com/2025/05/09/theraplay-healin…ith-dafna-lender

I've been wanting my colleague Dr. Catherine Tucker to come on the pod for awhile now to discuss Theraplay, a therapeutic modality that utilizes the child-parent relationship to foster secure attachment through play-based activities. Catherine illuminates this modality, where the Practitioner guides the parent and child through playful, fun games, developmentally challenging activities, and tender, nurturing activities that helps the parent regulate the child's behavior and communicate love, joy, and safety to the child. Connecting in this way helps the child feel secure, cared for, connected and worthy. Who doesn't want that? We also talk about the power of presence, the concept of cycle starting, healing intergenerational trauma, and and the role of play in emotional regulation. We also discuss the embracing imperfection in parenting and focusing on connection over control in our relationships with our children. One of my goals in my work is to empower parents to be conscious and educated consumers as seek support for their child and themselves.

A couple of weeks ago, I was hearing over and over in my conversations with friends how much stress and confusion and YOWZA come with the holidays. I love this season. I'm probably baking something as you read these words. I'm in. AND I also know this season comes with its fair share of extra. Extra chaos, extra scramble, extra hosting, extra outpouring, even extra grief. So I asked a question online and in private conversations: If you had the luxury of having your own relationship expert on call during the holidays, what would you want to ask? Oh, man, did the floodgates open. And my guest April Bordeau knew just what to do. April is a phenomenal therapist with over thirty years of experience. She's a founder and the managing director of Care To Change, a counseling center in the Indianapolis area, and she was kind enough to join me in a late-night recording session. We tackle all sorts of things, so buckle up and listen to this super helpful and practical conversation with April Bordeau. April is licensed as a clinical social worker. She is a Trust Based Relational Intervention (TBRI) practitioner and certified educator and a Prepare-Enrich & SYMBIS pre-marriage and marriage facilitator. She is trained in Experiential Therapy, Crisis Intervention Teams and NOVA crisis intervention, Theraplay, and the Suicide PAIR program and is certified in EMDR.

Vieraana Johanna Tervanen Voisiko lasten ja perheiden pahoinvoinnin taustalla ollakin se, että vanhemmat eivät itse ole ole aikanaan tulleet hoivatuiksi? Miten voisi kyetä antamaan sellaista, jota itse ei ole saanut? Miten voisimme hoivata läheisiämme, tai itseämme? Hoiva kantaa ja luo toivoa, se auttaa erityisesti lastensuojelun palveluiden piirissä olevia vanhempia luomaan parempaa suhdetta lapsiinsa. On tärkeää myös tiedostaa ja auttaa vanhempia ymmärtämään se, miten heillä voi jokin oma kriisi aktivoitua silloin, kun heidän lapsensa on saman ikäinen kuin milloin oma kipeä trauma on tapahtunut. Ensin täytyy siis kohdata ja hoivata vanhemmat, ja tukea vanhempaa hoivaamaan lasta ja itseään. Myös auttajien oma tausta ja historia ja oman traumataakan kipukohtien tiedostaminen on tärkeää, jotta voi vaikuttavammin auttaa asiakkaita.   Jaksossa keskustellaan lisäksi suhdeperusteisuudesta ja dialogisuudesta sekä johdatellaan traumatietoisuuden pariin yhteiskuntatieteiden maisteri Johanna Tervasen kanssa. Johanna on toiminut pitkään mm. lastensuojelun päällikkönä sekä lastensuojelun johtavana asiantuntijana Uudenmaan eri alueilla.  Kiinnostuitko?

Theraplay is a dyadic (parent/child) treatment modality for supporting children and families that focuses on harnessing the power of the relationship between the child and their caregiver as path toward change and healing.  Theraplay places a priority on strengthening the parent/child relationship as the way to create change for a child or within a family- even in diagnoses or symptoms that don't seem obviously related to the parent/child relationship, such as ADHD or Autism.  Theraplay believes that strengthening the parent/child relationship will always contribute positively to a child's mental health, regardless of the specific symptoms or mental health diagnosis.My guest today on today's podcast episode is Mandy Jones, Program Director of The Theraplay Institute in Chicago, IL. Mandy is a Theraplay trainer, practitioner, and supervisor, a Registered Play Therapist, and an attorney.  In addition to her administrative and training responsibilities at The Theraplay Institute, Mandy also provides therapy to children and families.To learn more about the services at The Theraplay Institute, check out their website at https://theraplay.org/ Their online store has so many resources, including the books Parenting with Theraplay and the activity book Parenting the Theraplay Way.  https://theraplay.org/store/Goodies you can find on my website:FREE Brilliance of Attachment eBook at https://robyngobbel.com/ebookFREE masterclass on What Behavior Really Is and How to Change It at https://robyngobbel.com/masterclassRead all about The Club- opening for new members in the fall of 2021Upcoming trainings for Parent and Professionals are listed at https://robyngobbel.com/trainings**********There are so many benefits (and no drawbacks!) to teaching kids and teens about the brain.

It is often really difficult for the professionals involved to know if a group of traumatized siblings should be kept together or separated once they've been removed from their birth families. There are so many factors to weigh in the balance such as:Do the siblings depend on each other and have they formed an unbreakable bond? Or is there intense rivalry and jealousy between them?Have the boys been encouraged to think they are more important than the girls? Will learned patterns of behaviour make re-parenting and learning new cultural norms an uphill battle?Is an older child violent to a younger one? Does one child show highly sexualised behaviour to another?How can a parent meet the different needs of each individual child within a sibling group?And how can parents successfully raise traumatized siblings so that they retain happy memories of their childhood?Social worker, academic and mother of two sibling boys, Jessica Jackson, talks from her own challenging experience with plentiful advice on how to overcome problems.

A rich conversation about the power that play has to connect and have a harmonious relationship, to find a moment of hope and heal past trauma, and to live in this world as our own true self.They talk about Dafna’s journey into the profundity of play and her beautiful definition of play.They converse about what happens to a baby when their caregiver is not responsive or is abusive and how parents can approach a child that is damaged or has been rejected. Furthermore they cave into a dialogue around parents expectations and how they can handle them, how just one moment of play and connection can heal an extended period of disconnection, qualities of a parent that can help a disconnected child, what is the symptomatic of a healthy functioning relationship, the importance of repair and reconnecting, and how to deal with discipline.In this chapter of Inspired Evolution you will discover why we tend to play less as we get older, what attachment means to Dafna, which is the most formative period of a child, whether to embody or not the values of pace in babies, and advice to those who are parents for the first time. You will learn to play with your child in a way that establishes felt safety, increases social engagement, expands arousal regulation, and supports the development of positive self-esteem for both your child and yourself.You also will have access to different fun and caring parent/child games and activities that build attunement and understanding of each other, replicating early relationship experiences that are proven to lead to secure attachment.You will find ways to help your child discover his/her true self and ways to approach, connect and start healing your child's past trauma. You will learn how to be responsive and create a safe and secure attachment for your baby, how to repair, reconnect and restore the relationship with your child, and in moments of trouble and disagreements, you will discover the best way to accompany your child in a receptive way.“It is never too late to restore the relationship with your child”“To see your parents laughing and enjoying you, is like a lightning ball of energy”About Dafna Lender:Dafna Lender is a trainer, supervisor and consultant in Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy and Theraplay. She is the training director at The Therapy Institute , the co-author of the book “Theraplay: The Practitioner’s Guide” and co-author of two chapters in the 3rd Edition of the book “Theraplay, Building Better Relationships Through Attachment-Based Play”She earned a Bachelor degree in Political Science from University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, a Bachelor degree in Social Work from Tel Aviv University in Israel, and a Master in Social Work from Yeshiva University in New York. Dafna is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapist. She has served as the program director at The Theraplay® Institute in Evanston, IL for 16 years. She trains psychotherapists all over the world and trains in three languages English, French and Hebrew.Early in her career, Dafna worked in treatment foster care and witnessed child after child “fail” out of foster placements due to difficult behavior. Children were disruptive, unsettled and unhappy, and their caregivers felt defeated. Dafna’s sense of discouragement went away after taking the DDP training and learning direct, concrete ideas and interactions that she could apply in home with her treatment families to promote healthier, stable relationships. Dafna’s area of expertise is helping children with serious psychological problems caused by histories of abuse, neglect, trauma and/or multiple placements. By focusing on developing a child’s secure attachment with his/her caregivers, Dafna helps resolve issues in the child’s traumatic history. She has successfully treated children with a variety of backgrounds, including children raised in orphanages, with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder, exposed to domestic violence and community violence and children of parents with chronic mental illness.Her aim is to help people believe that there is hope in their relationship and that they can experience happiness and connections that they thought weren’t possible. Tune In: Welcome Dafna Lender to the Inspired Evolution!: (00:00:00)Dafna’s journey into the profundity of play:(01:57)Her journey started as a social worker putting kids from 6 to 12 in pre adoptive homes, matching the family with the child, and then accompanying them on this journey hoping they would be able to live happily ever after. Nobody was prepared for the events that would happen at home when the child actually showed fear of the enemency of the parent-child relationship. Dive in and see what Dafna did to help these damaged kids and the child/parent relationship.“I went on a search to find the skills to help damaged kids”About the disruption of children’s intimacy: (04:18)When a child is born their attachment system is prime and ready to connect with a responsive primary caregiver. If that primary caregiver is not responsive or abusive, then this child is going to grow up completely distrusting and it will be very hard to be their own selves.“Damaged kids see any adult that wants to take care of them as a menace ”Approaches that work with damaged kids: (06:40)Discover the importance of acceptance, being present, and sharing basic experiences. In this chapter you will master fun, simple and sensory games for those basic experiences.“We need to give kids presence and acceptance to feel safe”How does a parent not have expectations?: (08:42)Parents constantly try to put their expectations on their child and make it so that the child bares witness to what the parent’s greatest values are. In this chapter Linda recommends what to do every time you have a conflict with your child. “Let go of expectations if you want to have a harmonious relationship with your kid”“Play” according to Dafna: (11:33)Cave into the episode and hear the most beautiful definition for “Play” and conversation around laughter. You will find out why play is important and everybody must never stop doing it, and you will discover how important it is when trying to connect.“Play is the energy that gives kids and adults hope”Sporadic moments of connection that heal extended periods of disconnection: (23:38)Replicating moments of hope can heal extended periods of disconnection in kids. Follow the episode to hear how it works.More qualities of a parent that can help a disconnected child: (26:37)Find out the importance of curiosity and empathy. All about connecting parents and child and making it a harmonious connection.“Curiosity and empathy can reduce conflicts between everybody”Positive outcome of applying this pace methodology: (30:37)Tap in and hear what Dafna has to say about repair and reconnecting, the importance of parents stepping back and figuring out why they want to be in control and the importance in how parents treat themselves.“Reconnect and show your kids you still want them in your circle”How to discipline without needing to “repair”: (34:30)“Separate the consequence from the actual connection with the child”Why do we tend to play less as we get older: (39:21)“There is part of society that compresses our energy and creativity to connect, play and dance”“Attachment” according to Dafna and what it underpins: (41:56)“Early experiences of security, both the joy and that somebody will take care of me and protect me, is the platform for so much of our human experience ”The most formative period of a child's life and when it ends: (44:10)Cave in and find out which is the most formative period of a child, and why you must be receptive and not reactive.“It is never too late to restore the relationship with your child”Embodying values of pace for those ages from the third trimester to the age of two: (48:09)Embodying values of pace in babies is different.

Welcome to episode 4 of my new podcast 'Agents of Hope'. My name is Tim Cox. I am a trainee Educational Psychologist and I am passionate about psychology, hope and society.  This podcast aims to promote hopeful thinking and conversation about positive change in the field of applied educational psychology, education and wider society. If you are interested in the podcast you can subscribe on your podcast streaming platform, follow the Agents of Hope Facebook page or follow me on twitter @timceducation.Episode #4In this episode, I speak to my colleague and deskmate, Dr Amelia Taylor. Amelia talks about her journey from her upbringing in rural Somerset, chancing upon Educational Psychology and a bike ride that changed everything. Amelia sees her role as Educational Psychology through the lens of Polyvagal theory and has recently become a trainer in Theraplay.  If you are interested in Amelia's ideas you can follow her on twitter @lifecyclespsych.During our discussion, Amelia helps me to understand the principles and theory of Polyvagal theory and how that relates to resilience, Theraplay, Amelia's love of mountain biking and my love of music. Our discussion helps me to understand how the nervous system can be integrated into an ecological understanding of resilience and how the idea maps to other neuroscientific ideas.  Amelia also talks about her new intervention for teenagers combining mountain biking and we discuss how the theory that underpins Theraplay could be applied to other outdoor pursuits and sports. We conclude by trying to tackle a tough question from the TEP Facebook community about therapeutic approaches, evidence-based practice and ecological psychology. This discussion was a real learning experience for me, so many ping moments. I hope that you enjoy the episode as much I enjoyed recording it. Suggested ReadingDana, D. A. (2018).

Hello, everyone!  Today we discuss what it's like to be a therapist in the times of the Coronavirus epidemic.  Myself and two other therapists located in El Paso, Texas talk about: what it's like to run a small business/private practice during a pandemic, how to prepare yourself as a therapist to see clients via tele-health during these unprecedented times, why you should see a therapist during this outbreak, struggles we see in our communities, and helpful tips/advice (other than washing your hands) for coping with this worldwide stress. Must have information about today's guests: Guillermo Castañeda (Memo) is a mental health counselor and hypnotherapist and the director of Counseling of El Paso. He completed his Masters in Education in Mental Health Counseling at The University of Texas at El Paso, and is certified in Hypnotherapy by the Hypnosis Motivational Institute. His clinical approach is eclectic as he believes that one size doesn’t fit all.  His training and modalities range from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, and Hypnotherapy. He is passionate about helping others connect with their inner self and have strong and healthy relationships. He specializes in pain management and helps clients who are suffering from depression, emotional distress, or anxiety, as well as relational or environmental stress. It is his belief that as long as we are compassionate and loving to ourselves, we can also work effectively within ourselves, so his focus is on self-awareness.  Jazmine Silva, LPC-Intern Supervised by Gerardo Rosas, LPC-S, has both a counseling and a teaching heart.  Prior to entering the counseling profession, she was a teacher at Ascarate Elementary for five years. Her profession in education and post graduate work inspired her at a personal level to pursue the field of counseling.  Jazmine graduated with a Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling from UTEP’s Mental Health Program, CACREP Accredited, in May 2018. Currently, she works at Counseling of El Paso where she serves adults, children and their families.  Jazmine is a Theraplay Foundational Theraplay Practioner and provides interventions based on Theraplay ® principles when working with children and their families.  She is passionate about learning, growing and building better relationships.   Mentioned in the episode:  https://counselingofelpaso.com/ www.instagram.com/helping_hearts_changing_lives Research by: Dr. Bruce Perry, Dr. Dan Siegel, Gary Landreth Disclaimer: *Recommendations, discussion, and disclosures are for informational/entertainment purposes only.  You should never substitute consultations/information from your own mental health/medical professionals with information from this podcast.* Photo by cottonbro from Pexels
