The Theraplay Institute Revenue and Competitors

The Theraplay Institute has been the international guardian for Theraplay® since 1971, and a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit corporation since 1995. TTI is an international training institute that provides training for mental health professionals, parents and teachers, both locally and off-site around the world. We offer mental health services for children and their families at our premiere clinic in Evanston. Theraplay uses practitioner guidance to create playful and caring child-adult interactions that foster joyful shared experiences. These activities build attunement and understanding of each other – replicating early relationship experiences that are proven to lead to secure attachment. The interactions are personal, physical and fun – a natural way for everyone to experience the healing power of being together. With the support of the Theraplay practitioner, parents learn to play with their child in a way that establishes felt safety, increases social engagement, expands arousal regulation, and supports the development of positive self-esteem for both the child and the parent. Training in Theraplay is appropriate for anyone who is a direct service provider working with children and/or families. The training information is essential for social workers, psychologists, teachers, speech-language pathologists, occupational therapists, physical therapists and mental health professionals.
