Certified AutPlay Therapy Providers

Robert Jason Grant Ed.D and the AutPlay Therapy Clinic do not serve as a governing or regulatory body for those who have completed the requirements to be a Certified AutPlay Therapy Provider. Robert Jason Grant Ed.D and AutPlay Therapy maintain and oversee trainings and materials that meet the standard to achieve certification and can verify that a professional has successfully met the requirements for certification. Having a certification in AutPlay Therapy and being listed in this provider directory does not indicate that a person’s current professional status is accurate, nor does it communicate that someone is fully knowledgeable in play therapy or neurodiversity affirming work. Those seeking a professional should be diligent in interviewing the professional to assess for best fit. They following interview questions are provided as a guide:

1) What type of play therapy do you offer and what are your credentials/training for providing play therapy?
2) What is your experience working with autistic/Neurodivergent children and their families?
3) Can you describe the types of issues you have worked on with Neurodivergent children?
4) How might the play therapy you offer benefit my autistic/Neurodivergent child?
5) What would a typical play therapy session look like and how would you involve the parent and/or family members?
6) What are some possible mental health needs and typical therapy goals when working with Neurodivergent children?
7) How would you conceptualize neurodiversity and describe a neurodiversity affirming approach?
