How ADHD and CCPT Align

Mon Feb 02 2026

Listen

ADHD is often treated as a compliance problem rather than a nervous system and executive functioning difference. In this episode of Playful Beginnings, we examine: • Core ADHD symptom presentation across development • Regulation, impulse control, working memory, and emotional modulation • Why behavior-based interventions alone frequently plateau • How Child-Centered Play Therapy supports intrinsic regulation, agency, and attachment security • Clinical implications for treatment planning and parent consultation This episode is ideal for play therapists, clinicians, educators, and supervisors seeking developmentally responsive, evidence-aligned intervention strategies. 🎧 Now streaming. Follow Playful Beginnings for clinically grounded conversations that elevate the field. #PlayTherapy #ADHDTreatment #ClinicalSupervision #ChildPsychotherapy #DevelopmentalNeuroscience #MentalHealthProfessionals
