It is time! Start planning, reserve your hotel room, register! You don't want to miss this play therapy retreat with myself, Jessica Stone, Ph.D., RPT-S, and Clair Mellenthin Lcsw. Regulation, Relationship, and Representation in Play Therapy (In Person Palisade, Colorado).
July 30, July 31, and August 1, 2026

Join us for the third annual immersive play therapy retreat in beautiful Palisade, Colorado, where we’ll explore the powerful triad of Regulation, Relationship, and Representation in therapeutic work with children and families. Led by three experienced clinicians with specialties in neurodivergence, attachment, and digital play, this 2.5-day experience invites you to deepen your practice through an integrative, developmentally grounded lens.

This year’s retreat offers a dynamic blend of theory, hands-on tools, and experiential learning. Together, we’ll examine how play therapy supports nervous system regulation, fosters safe and secure relational dynamics, and opens space for the creative representation of self—especially for children with diverse neurobiological profiles and lived experiences.

Day One of AutPlay®, EMDR, and Trauma-Informed Integration: Supporting Neurodivergent Children Across Settings was so good and fun, it just felt right! Thanks to my training partner Jackie Flynn and our wonderful group of participants! I started the day with a beach sunrise and ended it feeling accomplished. Ready for Day Two!
