CAPT Book Study

The CAPT Book Study is a guided professional development series for clinicians who want to sit more deeply with the literature behind Climate Awareness Play Therapy. We curate key peer-reviewed articles, book chapters, and practice-oriented texts that illuminate ecological systems, neurobiology of chronic environmental stress, child development, and play therapy mechanisms of change. Each session includes structured discussion prompts, clinical application questions, and space to map readings back onto the CAPT seven-pillar framework. This format supports reflective practice, helps you refine language for discussing climate distress with families and supervisors, and can complement participation in the CAPT Intensive Program or supervision training.
