You missed out!
As therapists, we understand how unprocessed trauma can echo across generations. We hear it in the stories our clients share. We feel it in our own bodies as we sit with them. This expanding field of intergenerational healing deserves our thoughtful attention—but so does another truth that often goes unnamed: strength and wisdom also travel through families. They, too, are inherited.
- How do we honor the layers of pain carried forward without overlooking the quiet resilience that endured alongside it?
- How do we explore ancestral and embodied wisdom, ours and those whom we work with, without minimizing the very real struggles people face?
- How do we hold both truths with compassion, curiosity, and steadiness, all while incorporating the Powers of Play?
We invite you to join us in Las Vegas, May 14–17, 2026, as we lean into these questions together. Over four days, we will explore the Wisdom of our ancestors, the Wisdom of our mentors and teachers, the Wisdom held within our bodies, and the Wisdom of those who trust us with their healing.
Come be part of a community committed to moving forward with courage, clarity, and connection. Let’s discover what becomes possible when wisdom echoes across generations.

Non-play therapists will find the Las Vegas Play Therapy Symposium both clinically relevant and personally enriching. While play therapy is often associated with children, the principles at its core—attunement, nervous system regulation, embodied awareness, and relational safety—are foundational to effective work with clients of all ages. This symposium offers concrete, transferable tools for deepening therapeutic presence, strengthening connection, and recognizing what is communicated beyond words. Participants leave with practical interventions, renewed clinical insight, and a fuller understanding of how healing unfolds through relationship, creativity, and the wisdom of the body—benefits that extend well beyond the playroom and into every therapeutic modality.
