Estevan Gonzales, MA, LPC will be presenting on the innovative use of Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) in group therapy a creative and evidence-informed approach to mental health treatment.This therapeutic model uses the imaginative world of Dungeons & Dragons to help clients express themselves, build confidence, and develop problem-solving and social skills in a safe, supportive environment. Through storytelling and roleplay, participants could explore real-life challenges, practice new coping strategies, and gain insight into their behaviors and emotions.
The collaborative nature of the game encourages teamwork, empathy, and resilience, empowering clients to overcome obstacles together and apply those same strengths to their everyday lives.
Estevan has spent over three years developing and as of last year has facilitated D&D therapy groups, successfully completing 2 programs that demonstrate how fantasy-based roleplay can become a powerful tool for connection, growth, and healing.
