playtherapygames.com is a professional resource, product, and training portal for Morning Glory Treatment Center for Children and Norma Y. Leben. Its content focuses on child play therapy, interventions for ADHD/ODD/high-functioning ASD, parent behavior management, and children’s social-emotional learning. It is not a typical large course platform; rather, it feels more like a long-running collection of books, DVDs, game-based tools, articles, consultation services, and workshop information built up by an experienced practitioner.
The formal online course mentioned on the site is “Directive Group Play Therapy for Children Diagnosed with ADHD, ODD, and High Functioning ASD,” taught by Norma through the UT Austin Steve Hicks School of Social Work. It is offered as an online self-paced/on-demand course, with 6 modules and a 70-page workbook. Beyond that, the site also features ADHD Parenting Success DVD, The Feelings Wheel Game, books related to Directive Group Play Therapy, as well as private consultation, supervision, and organizational speaking services for parents and therapists.
The instructor background is the site’s strongest selling point. Norma Y. Leben holds a master’s degree in social service administration from the University of Chicago. She is a Texas LCSW-S, a Registered Play Therapist Supervisor, and has Professor Status with Play Therapy International. Her experience spans child protection, therapeutic foster care, play therapy supervision, and workshops in places such as Hong Kong, Macau, Singapore, and Beijing. That said, the scraped text does not specify course pricing, whether continuing education credits or certificates of completion are issued, or clear shipping and after-sales policies for products. These details should be confirmed before purchasing.
The main advantages are its focused niche, deep clinical experience, and practice-oriented materials, making it suitable for professionals and parents who need concrete play-based and behavioral intervention strategies. The text also provides several PDF articles, case materials, and research reviews for further reading. The drawbacks are that the website feels dated, information is scattered, and event and copyright details often appear to remain from earlier years. Course registration depends on external pages, and the site lacks many features common on modern course platforms, such as previews, reviews, certificates, course-hour details, pricing, and payment instructions.
It is better suited to play therapists, social workers, school psychologists/counselors, parent educators, and anyone working with behavioral issues in children with ADHD, ODD, high-functioning ASD, or trauma histories. General parents may also find behavior-management ideas from the DVD and Smiley System, but the professional terminology and English-language content may be a barrier. The text does not state whether access, payment, or shipping is supported from mainland China, so it is advisable to confirm by email first. If Chinese-language instruction, local supervision, or certifiable training hours are needed, users may also want to compare domestic child psychology continuing education courses, Play Therapy International-related training, or university continuing education programs.
