Evoking memories in children
Working therapeutically with children involves evoking memories that have been buried in the unconscious part of the mind. Some of these will be traumatic in nature and need to be handled very carefully if harm is not to be done. This requires training and clinical supervision to the high standards of a Professional Standards Authority Accredited Register such as the Register of Play and Creative Arts Therapists www.playtherapyregister.org.uk , managed by Play Therapy UK, or a profession registered with the HCPC.
Equally important is the coupling of the therapy model that is used with a clinical evidence base. The PTUK Integrative Holistic model is validated by an evidence base of over 12,000 cases.
This shows that between 77% and 84% of children receiving Play Therapy provided by a PTUK registrant will show a positive change. No other Play Therapy register has an equivalent evidence base.
