Join the CCPT Collective

Building a community of play therapists preserving and advancing the child-centered model.

We bring together aspiring and seasoned child-centered play therapists to support and inspire each other with the shared goal of preserving and advancing the classical child-centered play therapy model so that we can positively impact children and families worldwide.

We aim to inspire, educate, and empower CCPTs, ensuring they never feel lonely, unsupported, or undertrained. Through our collective efforts, we will evangelize the power of Classical Child-Centered Play Therapy to the world, igniting a community-driven movement that enhances the lives of children and families everywhere.



The CCPT Collective "Main Event" is our twice-weekly Zoom calls

Our Thursday and Friday Zoom calls are the highlight of our week together.

Dr. Brenna Hicks hosts two calls weekly that feature:

  • Live Question & Answer sessions - Get your questions answered live!
  • Group training on Advanced CCPT Topics - Learn techniques, strategies, and tips for implementing the classical child-centered play therapy model in your practice.
  • New member introductions - Meet new members and find connections based on location, type of work, and interests.

Get your questions answered in our online discussion platform

The heart of the CCPT Collective is our online discussions. We understand that being a CCPT can feel lonely sometimes. Knowing that you have a community of other CCPTs and a place where you can share your thoughts is a great comfort for our members.

Online discussion categories include:

  • General Discussion - Talk about anything CCPT-life related.
  • Share Wins - Share your CCPT Wins this week, and let us celebrate with you! Your win may encourage someone else!
  • Case Consultations - Ask questions regarding case specifics with which you need some perspective.
  • Talking to Parents - Ask for feedback on interacting with parents.
  • Private Practice - Get feedback regarding owning a practice or working in the CCPT private practice world!
  • School-Based CCPT - Ask questions if you are practicing CCPT in a school environment.

Our experience practicing CCPT is better when we interact with a community of other practitioners who share the same child-centered model. 

We have developed a culture of positivity, growth, and encouragement in the CCPT Collective.

We hope to differentiate ourselves from other online CCPT communities in that everyone here is fully invested in developing their craft.

Placing a monetary value on membership naturally filters only those who are serious about their professional CCPT skills into the membership.

You can be assured that everyone here is "rowing in the same direction."  That is, preserving and advancing the child-centered play therapy model.
