Episode summary
In this episode, I share some fascinating unofficial data I collected from my email subscribers about their journeys to finding child-centered play therapy (CCPT). I was curious to learn more after noticing a pattern of people mentioning they came to CCPT as a second or third career.
The responses revealed an incredibly diverse range of prior careers - everything from nursing, teaching and social work to advertising, journalism, and even running a bed and breakfast! What united everyone was a deep desire to have a more direct therapeutic impact on children's lives. Many discovered CCPT almost by chance while researching how to effectively help kids. Across the board, finding CCPT was a pivotal, life-changing moment that brought profound personal and professional fulfillment.
