Talking with Clients about Adventure Therapy

One of our key tasks as an Adventure Therapy practitioner is to explain AT to clients. Initially, it can be difficult to find the language to help others understand what this intervention is all about. We begin by honing in on your definition of AT and then we explore considerations for the optimum ways to engage others in the process. We will explore research on common factors, Wampold’s contextual model, and how this applies to adventure therapy. 

Activities for Processing AT Experiences

While the interventions that AT practitioners select are an important part of the puzzle, a lot of the magic of AT sessions can be missed without focusing on processing the clients’ experiences.
This webinar will share several activities and strategies that can be used to turn the theoretical models of processing in experiential education into fun, engaging, and informative therapeutic tools.
