What is Play Therapy?
Adults talk when they go to therapy; children learn by doing.
Until they have the cognitive skills that come online in adolescence, most children don't know why they're overwhelmed or misbehaving. Lectures and punishment don't help because they don't learn that way.
As a Registered Play Therapist™ I have specialized training in using play to help individuals ages 4+ develop emotional awareness, regulation skills, and self confidence.
Play is Purposeful
Play isn't just fun and games. Play is the language of childhood. Through play, children experience a range of emotions and learn to cope with them in real time.
Play therapy is a well researched, developmentally informed approach to working with children. As a clinician who specializes in play therapy, I use a blend of child-led play, attachment-based activities with parents and children, and directive skill building.
