Close your eyes for a moment. (Okay, maybe not if you’re reading this!)
​
Imagine or picture this:
​
2 months from now you’re walking into your therapy room with kids or teens, feeling calm, confident, and dare I say… excited?
​
Instead of feeling frazzled or second-guessing yourself, you’re thinking, “I’ve got this!”
​
Your sessions flow seamlessly, your confidence shines, and your clients (and their parents) are raving about the incredible progress they’re making.
​
Your sessions are running smoother than ever. You’ve got tools at your fingertips, a community behind you, and a Mini Jennie in your pocket (yes, that’s a thing, and yes, it’s awesome).

​

Welcome to Pathways to Play.

​

Why Join Pathways to Play? Let’s face it: working with kids and teens is equal parts rewarding and really hard sometimes. Because no one enters this field to feel burned out, overwhelmed, or stuck. You’re here to make a difference—and enjoy doing it.

​

That’s why we created this growing platform with:

• 475+ ready-to-use resources (and counting!)—from session starters to guides that untangle tricky situations like gaslighting or summertime slumps.
• Insights, aka “Mini Jennie”—a magical little button that pulls from all our resources to answer your burning questions if you don't want to search for them. (It’s like having a playful consultant in your back pocket!)
• Fresh, new tools every week—because your clients grow, and so should you.

​
What Could Your Future Look Like?
​
Let’s fast forward a bit:

...6 weeks from now, your stress levels are low, your boundaries are strong, and you’re finally saying yes to that lunch break you deserve.

​
...3 months from now, you’ve mastered tough conversations, your retention rates are soaring, and your clients’ parents think you’re a genius.
​
Doesn’t that sound dreamy? Now imagine your career feels purposeful, playful, and perfectly aligned with the therapist you always wanted to be.
​
​
Who Is This For?
​

• Practicum student looking for guidance beyond textbooks and figuring out how to start (and end) sessions without feeling awkward?

• Seasoned pro looking for a playful refresh to reignite your spark?
• Newly licensed therapist who loves kids but needs a treasure chest of child-friendly tools and language?

​
​
If you nodded to any of these, Pathways to Play is your new happy place, it's our little corner of the internet :)

​

​This Adventures in Play or our Pathways to play membership does not replace the necessity for clinical supervision. It is imperative that every intern engages in weekly meetings with a university-approved supervisor to ensure adherence to academic and professional standards. Additionally, every provisional therapist must have weekly sessions with a state-approved clinical supervisor to meet the requirements for licensure. These supervisory meetings are crucial for maintaining professional competence, ensuring ethical practice, and supporting ongoing development in clinical skills.
