Integrating Interpersonal Neurobiology Into The Play Therapy Process: Advancing Adlerian Play Therapy

Abstract

Advancements in neuroscience provide theoretical support for principles and practices of counseling and play therapy intervention (Badenoch and Kestley, 2015; Siegel, 2012). Likewise, AdPT shares many conceptual similarities with IPNB and neuroscience research including emphasis on childhood experience, social interest and relationships, purposefulness of behavior, holism, and the internalized narrative or self-schema. This chapter per the authors will (a) develop connections from neuroscience and IPNB to play and play therapy, (b) review the IPNB model's domains of integration and their relationship to AdPT, and (c) provide an updated AdPT framework that encompasses the most recent neuroscience empirical support.
