Pediatric Play Therapy

Pediatric play therapy is a specialized form of counseling that uses play to help children express their feelings, thoughts, and experiences. Since young children may struggle to articulate emotions verbally, therapists use toys, games, art, and activities to facilitate communication and understanding. This therapeutic approach helps children process trauma, anxiety, behavioral issues, or emotional difficulties in a developmentally appropriate way. Play therapy creates a safe, supportive environment where children can explore their feelings, build coping skills, and develop healthier behaviors, fostering emotional growth and resilience.
