Play Therapy
Play therapy is an approach to counseling children that uses the natural therapeutic power of play to promote healing. In play, children use developmentally appropriate forms of communication to work through troubling experiences. Most importantly, play is fun and engaging and one of the first ways that children interact with their world. Lastly, it is a part of how they learn to connect, learn about cause and effect, problem-solve, and express themselves.
