Hi, I’m Kim Feeney, LISW, RPT-S. I’m pleased to bring my unique balance of experience, expertise, and training to my new training center, Monarch Mastery Consulting and Training and specifically the Adlerian Play therapy trainings. As a play therapist for over ten years, I can personally speak to the power of utilizing play with clients.

My journey into Adlerian play therapy began in 2018 when I attended my first training with Terry Kottman, the founder and developer of Adlerian play therapy. Before then, I had been strictly child-centered in my work with children and rarely involved parents and families in my work. This theory and way of being with kids felt inauthentic, however, I did not know there was another way.

A lot has happened since that first class! I have completely embraced Adlerian has my foundational theory in all my work with children AND families. Realizing, it's ok to be directive in sessions, and that clients need to gain insight to create real change in their lives, I feel congruent and authentic in my sessions. Involving the parents and families into my work has also shifted the way I practice in a positive direction.

I now lead a small group practice. I enjoy facilitating play therapy with my clients and helping them to gain insight into their ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving.
