This quote reflects a core theme of the #BAPTConference: that play therapy stands within a wider community of professions devoted to supporting wellbeing and positive change. It reminded us that our work is part of a shared narrative rooted in service, expertise and the desire to improve lives.

This quote beautifully captured the heart of the BAPT Conference, reminding us that play therapy is so much more than a set of techniques or interventions. It spoke to the deeper purpose of our work grounded in service, compassion and presence.

My favourite toy is slime.  It has powerful therapeutic value.  Its sensory nature helps children regulate, express emotions, and feel in control.

Cultural attunement isn’t a destination, it’s a lifelong process. In play therapy, it means meeting each child and family with empathy, curiosity and humility, recognising that our understanding is always evolving.

Crafting a clear scope of practice helps us understand who we are as play therapists and how we contribute to the wider therapeutic landscape.

Caste can feel invisible, woven into the “normal” patterns of daily life. In play therapy, we are invited to notice how power and privilege may echo in our spaces and relationships.

Many children communicate through play rather than words and play therapy honours that, giving their play the space, respect and attention it deserves.

In #PlayTherapy, the child leads the way. We follow the child’s pace, their choices and their unique way of expressing themselves, trusting that healing unfolds when they feel seen, accepted and in control.
