Abstract

This article explores the various characteristics and attributes of a sample of play therapists (N=891). The data were collected using multiple methods, including a web-based survey, to collect information from the membership of the Association for Play Therapy (APT). The survey instrument collected information on various issues such as members' educational background, continuing education experiences and needs, methods of obtaining supervision, work settings, and distribution of play therapy as a portion of their overall workload. Descriptive and inferential statistics (including t-tests, Chi- squares, and ANOVA's where appropriate) were conducted to highlight significant differences in the sample across specific variables (gender and academic discipline). The findings are discussed, with recommendations provided to assist APT in planning strategies to best meet the needs of its members.
