The Child-Centered Play Therapy (CCPT)

Child-Centered Play Therapy (CCPT) is a therapeutic approach that uses play as a means for children to express their feelings and thoughts. In a safe and supportive environment, children engage in play, which helps them communicate emotions they may struggle to articulate. The therapist observes and reflects on the child's play, providing validation and understanding. This process promotes emotional healing and personal growth, allowing children to develop coping skills and better manage their feelings. CCPT is particularly effective for children facing challenges such as trauma, anxiety, or behavioral issues, as it respects their natural mode of expression.
