Career Profile - Play therapist


Career Profile


Play therapists use play as a communication tool to help children understand their world and deal with emotional distress and trauma

As a play therapist you’ll help children and young adolescents work through difficult life issues and experiences, including:

* abuse and neglect
* bereavement
* depression and anxiety
* divorce and family separations
* learning difficulties
* psychological problems
* traumatic experiences and violence

Responsibilities
As a Play therapist, you’ll need to:

* accept children through self-referral and referrals from other support professionals in organisations such as schools, hospitals, clinics and social services
* assess each child and their individual needs in consultation with other professionals, such as social services, health workers and teachers, and with parents and carers
* determine an appropriate course of therapeutic treatment
* provide regular therapeutic interventions in individual and group therapy sessions, normally on a weekly basis, to help children better cope with the issues they’re facing
* build up a relationship of trust with children and their parents/carers
* create a safe and stable environment in which children can express themselves through play and form strategies to cope with their issues and experiences
* ensure children’s safety when using the playroom and play equipment
* regularly evaluate and review play therapy sessions and progress
* seek support and advice from a clinical supervisor about any issues that arise and implement any actions
* keep accurate records about therapy interventions, issues and progress
* attend meetings with other professionals involved in the child’s care, and with parents and careers, and produce reports on activities and progress
* provide training, consultation and advice when required to other professionals
* provide clinical supervision to other less experienced play therapists
* keep up to date with the latest developments in play therapy and with your own professional development.

Salary

* Salaries for newly qualified play therapists typically start at around £31,000 to £32,000.
* With experience, you can earn between around £38,000 to £45,000, depending on how much, and the level of, experience you have.
* With further training and specialist areas of expertise, you could earn in excess of this amount.
* Many play therapists also work independently or take on private clients in addition to paid employment.

Sessional rates typically range from between £45 and £90 per hour for experienced play therapists.

Play therapists work in a range of settings, such as social services, education and healthcare, so salaries vary. If you’re working for a local council, school or NHS, for example, you may follow a graded salary structure.

Salaries also vary depending on your experience, level of responsibility and location. Salaries for jobs in London, for example, are usually higher (as are living costs).

Working Hours

Play therapy sessions usually take place once a week and normally last 40 to 50 minutes per session.

You’ll usually work Mondays to Fridays during normal office hours (9am to 5pm). If working privately with clients, your appointments may be held outside of these hours to fit in with their needs.

Part-time work is common, and you could work for several organisations at once. You may also take on freelance work or private clients in addition to your normal employment.

What to expect

* You’ll work as part of a multidisciplinary team with other healthcare professionals, such as social workers, psychologists, occupational therapists and medical practitioners.
* Providing therapy to children can be challenging, especially with cases involving abuse and violence. You need to allow for dealing with the pressures of this type of work by looking after your own emotional wellbeing. For example, many play therapists have therapy themselves to maintain a balance between their working and personal lives.
* The profession is small, but growing in the UK and job vacancies are not always widely advertised. Networking is still one of the best ways to find out about opportunities, so make sure you maintain good relationships with your contacts and previous employers.
* You may have to travel between appointments or to various workplaces during the week.

Skills

You’ll need to have:

* experience and understanding of child development
* excellent verbal and written communication skills
* interpersonal skills and the ability to build rapport quickly with both children and adults
* respect for children without judgement
* empathy and sincerity towards others
* emotional resilience and self-awareness
* the ability to remain calm and work effectively under pressure
* strong observation and listening skills
* creativity and imagination
* teamworking skills and the ability to work collaboratively with other professionals
* the ability to deal with confidential matters appropriately
* organisation and time management skills in order to manage a caseload of clients and resources
* a flexible and adaptable approach to work
* IT skills, including Microsoft Office and database case management systems
* attention to detail.

Career prospects

Once qualified and working in the profession you could choose to specialise in an area of play therapy, such as supporting victims of sexual abuse, drug abuse or domestic violence. It’s also possible to develop the family therapy dimension of your work, or to work with children with specific physiological challenges, such as deafness. Some even go on to work with adults using play therapy.

There are some opportunities to move into managerial roles. This could mean less time spent working directly with children, as you will have increased responsibility for the supervision of staff or a team of staff, the management of budgets and writing or presenting reports.

You could also consider training or academic teaching. The BAPT and PTUK encourage experienced play therapists to become clinical supervisors, supporting both those training to enter the field and those with less experience.

With experience you could consider freelance work or setting up a private practice.

Grading & How it Works

The UK has a unique higher education grading system. Its most unique feature compared to traditional grading systems is that it aims to be more specific in describing students’ academic achievement.

This type of assessment method is highly valued because it offers many advantages. Most importantly it highlights your academic strengths and specific skills, therefore, it helps employers gain a better understanding of your true potential.

Since it is proved to be such an efficient tool to assess students’ performance, many foreign countries like Canada, Australia and India are using the same grading system on some occasions with small changes to fit into their own local educational context.

We use a letter grade scale from A to F to indicate the students’ academic performance. If you get an A it means you have shown outstanding knowledge whereas if you get an F it means your score is not sufficient to pass the exam.
