Short DescriptionLearn about starting, running, and the outcomes of a therapeutic tabletop gaming group at a community college.
Long DescriptionTherapeutic tabletop gaming uses RPGs as a way to challenge players and broaden their perspectives. Through the game, students work on achieving personal goals like problem-solving, communication, building coping skills and conflict resolution skills. We have found that people learn and grow while they’re having fun. While the speaker is a counselor and approaches therapeutic gaming from a mental health perspective, this presentation can be relevant to any educator that wants to use RPGs as a way to benefit their students.
