Bridgette will be facilitating the workshop on "Who Are You?

Bridgette has written essays for Play Therapy magazine and was interviewed by NBC News for her expertise in play therapy and interventions for suicidal children. Bridgette provides play therapy supervision and training in Los Angeles, California and has provided play therapy to children, adolescents, and their families from impacted and underserved communities for 25 years in schools, hospitals, and community mental health agencies.
