"Play is the child's language. Toys are the words." Garry Landreth, Ph.D.
Play therapy is the child's equivalent of adult psychotherapy. Children are typically able to express their thoughts and feelings more naturally and easily through toys instead of words.
Play Therapy can be beneficial for children for many reasons. Areas of focus may include:
-
Adoption
-
Attachment Disruptions
-
Relationship Concerns
-
Behavior Issues
