About this Event

The Regulation Arcade: Game-Based Sand and Play Therapy is a trauma-informed training that explores how games, playful challenges, and structured play can support nervous system regulation, emotional awareness, and engagement. Drawing from play therapy, sand tray, and regulation-based frameworks, this training demonstrates how game mechanics—turn-taking, levels, choice, and feedback—create predictable, motivating containers for healing. Participants will learn how to adapt board games, sand tray scenes, and playful activities to support regulation, co-regulation, and skill-building with children, adolescents, and adults.
