Every Hero Needs a Sidekick. Be Ours!
Become a DisneyBound Experience Partner
Help us bring a little extra magic to Play Therapy: Disney Bound, May 2–8, 2027, at Disneyland! Now entering its fourth year, Play Therapy: Disney Bound is an immersive continuing education conference bringing together mental health professionals from across the country for clinical learning, creativity, connection, and play.
Our May 2027 conference, The Force at Play, celebrates the heroes, helpers, and stories that inspire us to grow, connect, and make a difference. But DisneyBound isn't just about learning in a magical setting. It's about experiencing firsthand the power of play, imagination, and meaningful connection.
That's where you come in. We're looking for businesses and organizations that believe in the importance of supporting the professionals who support others. Your sponsorship can help us create unforgettable experiences for our attendees—from a special character meet-and-greet to a shared fireworks celebration, playful networking opportunities, and thoughtful surprises throughout the week.
In return, we'll celebrate your organization as a valued partner in making these experiences possible, connecting your brand with an engaged community of mental health professionals. Your partnership doesn't just support a conference. It helps create the moments that make Disney Bound extraordinary.

Sponsor a Magical Moment
Some of the most meaningful Disney Bound moments happen outside the classroom—when clinicians laugh together, reconnect with their playful selves, and experience some unexpected magic. We're inviting partners to help bring these special experiences to life:
A Magical Character Encounter — $6,500
Help us bring an exclusive Disney character meet-and-greet to our conference community! This shared experience enables attendees to enjoy some Disney magic, capture memories, and celebrate the joy of play.
A Night to Remember: Fireworks Experience — $8,500
Imagine our DisneyBound community coming together for a special fireworks viewing experience! Your sponsorship would help us create an unforgettable shared celebration, giving attendees a chance to experience the magic of Disney together.
(Sponsorship opportunities for the two experiences above as exclusive partner or multiple supporting partners)
Game Night: Powered by Play — Sponsorships Welcome
Our conference game night is a favorite opportunity for attendees to connect outside of workshops. We're looking for a sponsor to help provide snacks and treats.
Little Moments, Big Magic
Not every magical moment needs a grand budget!
We're also welcoming sponsorships for welcome gifts, raffle prizes, creative supplies, playful surprises, and other enhancements that make our conference feel extra special.
Signature experiences are subject to full funding, availability, and venue approval.
"To Infinity and Beyond was by far the best conference I have been to. It was a perfect combination of fun and educational. Making great connections, learning useful and applicable topics, and having a magical time all in one week. I can’t wait for the next Disney conference!"
—Stephanie Golden, LPC

"The conference was above and beyond anything I hoped it would be. It provided great information, practical tools, and new ways to approach therapy in magical ways, alongside getting to meet, connect, and grow with strangers that I now consider friends. I did not expect to leave Disney feeling so connected to those that I did not know before arriving. This isn’t just training, it is a full life experience."
— Melissa Hueste, LPC-S, RPT-S

Can't wait for next year!"
