Integrating Interpersonal Neurobiology With Play Therapy

Keywords

Interpersonal neurobiology; Play therapy

Abstract

Advancements in neuroscience support play and empathic attunement as contributors to brain development and formation. As such, a natural connection seems to exist between play therapy and current neuroscience concepts. This article assimilated theories from the interpersonal neurobiology model (Siegel, 2012), including the 9 levels of integration, with play therapy processes and practices. Identification of complementary components may bolster efforts to advocate for the play therapy field as well as inform intentional intervention by practitioners.
