Play Therapy

What is Play Therapy?

Play therapy is to children what counseling is to adults. Play therapy utilizes play, children's natural medium of expression, to help them express their feelings more easily through toys instead of words. The toy a child chooses in the playroom and their play with that toy demonstrates their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Because of this, the toys in the playroom are carefully selected.
