Abstract
-
In this paper I have focused primarily on the impact that early childhood trauma can have on one's development and on one's capacity to play and to be a playful adult. I have combined my personal experiences, both as a clinician and as a survivor of early childhood trauma, with a body of literature complemented with interactive data obtained from senior clinicians. The data will hopefully be used to achieve greater insight, and to develop useful tools for working well with this patient population.
