    Did you miss out on the 2026 NCA Fall Conference? Not to worry! You can still catch 6CE's, available on demand, through 5pm on February 28th.

    The 2026 NCA Fall Conference was held on November 5th, featuring Dr. Jose "Joey" Tapia, PhD, LPC, CRC, RPT-S, NCC, CCPT-S/T, CPRT-S/T presenting: "The Healing Power of Play: A Child-Centered Play Therapy Intensive". 

    "The Healing Power of Play: A Child-Centered Play Therapy Intensive":

    Children often communicate their inner world through play rather than words. This interactive 6-hour intensive provides counselors, social workers, psychologists, and other mental health professionals with a comprehensive introduction to Child-Centered Play Therapy (CCPT), an evidence-based approach grounded in the therapeutic relationship and children's natural capacity for growth and healing. Participants will explore the theoretical foundations and developmental principles of CCPT while developing essential clinical skills for fostering emotional expression, resilience, and self-directed change. 

    If you need to register a group, please email us at NCA@necounseling.org. 


    CE certificates will be provided by the NCA following your successful completion of a CE quiz (8/10 correct). If you have not received your recorded CE within 24 hours of passing the quiz, and it is not in your spam folder, please email us at nca@necounseling.org. Registrants are responsible for maintaining their record of their CE's.

    Recordings of the the conference will be available beginning November 13th, 2026, and will close February 28th 2027 at 5pm. All CE quizzes are due at that time.
