Hey Sweary Therapist! WTF Is Play Therapy? Guest: Catherine Bass

F*ck The Rules

Hey y’all! It's been a hot minute since a super fresh episode dropped!

In this episode, I asked a colleague, Catherine Bass LMSW LSW, to sit with me and chat about Play Therapy. My knowledge is just the basics from when I was in my master’s program and I work exclusive with adults 18 years and older. So I really wanted to know more about Play Therapy and its benefits for those kids under the age of 12 years.
