Dragons of the Spectrum and Dragons of the Spectrum PLUS are structured tabletop role-playing programs designed to support social communication, emotional regulation, teamwork, and flexible thinking in neuro-divergent children.
Developed by Clinical Psychologist William Ellison, these evidence-based group programs use the engaging world of fantasy storytelling and cooperative play to build real-world skills in a safe and affirming environment.
This facilitator training program is designed for psychologists, therapists, educators, and allied health professionals who want to run their own 'DOTS' groups confidently.


Whether you're new to tabletop role-playing or a seasoned Game Master, this training equips you with everything you need to deliver a dynamic, neuro-affirming social program that kids will love — and learn from.
Upon completion, you’ll be certified to deliver both programs and host ongoing adventures tailored to your setting. Join us and bring the Social Play Academy approach into your practice or school.
