OXFORD,
\nMiss. – A University of Mississippi professor in the School of
\nEducation has been elected to a three-year term on the national board
\nof directors of the Association for Play Therapy.<\/p>\n

Marilyn Snow,
\nassociate professor of leadership and counselor education, was chosen
\nby the membership of the international professional society, which
\ncomprises nearly 6,000 psychologists, social workers, counselors and
\nfamily therapists. Snow said it’s important for professionals in the
\nfield to adhere to the APT’s mission of working to help suffering
\nchildren.<\/p>\n

“This post provides an opportunity to work with
\nclinicians across the globe,” said Snow, who joined the faculty in
\n2000. “I look forward to helping have a direct impact into the future
\ndirection of the play therapy field.”<\/p>\n

Play therapy is a
\ntherapeutic technique used to help children cope with emotional stress
\nor trauma by providing a way for them to express their experiences and
\nfeelings through a natural, self-guided, self-healing process.
\n

Over the past seven years, Snow has seen 16 UM graduates become registered play therapists. Among them is Erin Dugan, who remembers her former professor’s tireless effort to provide service, education and training to both those in need and the young professionals entering the play therapy field.<\/p>\n

“Dr. Snow’s expertise in relation to play therapy is quite notable,” Dugan said. “She’s volunteered to provide free services to underprivileged families, and her research expertise is invaluable. I’m thankful for the opportunity to have learned from one of the most educated and self-motivated mentors in the field.”<\/p>\n

A licensed professional counselor and registered play therapist-supervisor, Snow said she also looks forward to her continued supervision over services offered throughout the Lafayette County school system.<\/p>\n

“Dr. Snow is committed to her field, both in the classroom and the real world,” said Tom Burnham, UM education dean. “She’s to be commended for her efforts, and we applaud her.”<\/p>\n

Snow also serves on APT’s editorial board for its peer-reviewed International Journal of Play Therapy. Her past service includes chairing the APT ethics committee, and she is a past president of the Mississippi Association for Play Therapy.<\/p>\n
