Play Therapy

Play Therapy

Play therapy is a type of conversation that can be therapeutic and help children to express themselves, explore their thoughts and feelings, and make sense of their life experiences. Children flow naturally during play and it is easy to slip into play trance in a congenial environment As play is natural it is also a highly effective tool of externalizing inner reality through explorative play.

Play therapists or parents therapists create a safe and trusting environment to help shift narrow innocently perceived threats, troubles and challenges to resolutions through a gentle process of substitution and insight building. The main aim of play therapy is to equip children with adaptive behaviours and better coping mechanisms for everyday life. This is to help them develop a more positive view of their place in the world.
