Welcome to ANZAPT. We are the Aotearoa NZ Association for Play Therapy.
Our purpose is to foster excellence in child-centred play therapy practice for the benefit of children and their families.
We will ensure the play therapy workforce in Aotearoa is ethical, competent and culturally-responsive so that vulnerable children affected by trauma, and their whānau, can heal and flourish.
We are passionate about child-centred play therapy, and how it helps children work through their experiences.
Join us for our conferences, international day of play, and our monthly webinars, focusing on professional development, delivered by a variety of child-centred play therapy experts.
If you work or live with children, you will gain skills and ways of being to assist your child through life's experiences.
