The Child Centered Play Therapy Approach

Child-Centered Play Therapy (CCPT) is a therapeutic approach that uses play as a natural way for children to express their feelings and experiences. A trained therapist creates a safe, accepting environment where children can explore their thoughts through toys and activities. The therapist listens without judgment, allowing the child to lead the session. This process helps children process emotions, develop coping skills, and build self-awareness in a supportive setting. CCPT respects the child's natural way of communicating and encourages personal growth through their unique play expressions.
