Playtime Isn’t Over: Why Adults Need It as Much as Kids Do

Dear Valued Listener/Viewer,

In this episode of 'Get Inspired with Dr. Barb', I interview David Schatzkamer, a licensed mental health counselor and registered play therapy supervisor. We discuss the significance of play therapy in child development, the role of therapists, and how parents can engage in play therapy techniques at home. David shares insights on the importance of unstructured play, the integration of play therapy in schools, and the future of play therapy for both children and adults. The conversation emphasizes the need for play in education and mental health, advocating for a more playful approach to learning and emotional expression.
