NVAPT

Hello everyone and welcome. Instead of sending out paper newsletter, we are going to use an interactive blog. I guess NVAPT is joining the wave of the future! On this blog/newsletter site, you will find a lot of information about play therapy and NVAPT. In addition, you can add comments which will be responded to by the NVAPT Board. It is our intention to make the newsletter informative and playful. So, please participate!!

On another note, I should introduce myself. I'm Jill Packman. I am an associate professor at UNR and am opening a small private practice in North Carson City. I have a 21 month old who teaches me something new (about life and play) every day. He is a joy! I learned about play therapy at the University of North Texas and had the opportunity to study under Garry Landreth and Sue Bratton. My passions in play therapy include all kids, infant mental health, and children with special needs.

I want to say thank you to the board for all their work so far. We have a lot of really exciting irons in the fire and I couldn't do it with out them. A special thanks and "yea" for Lisa Robinson. She is the wizard behind the blog and the new website complete with Amazon Marketplace. So, if you need any play therapy books, be sure and buy them from our marketplace. Amazon kicks some $$ back to NVAPT! Thanks again everyone!!

Best,
Jill
