Play Therapy
Play therapy is an approach that incorporates elements of play into therapeutic practices, particularly in the context of working with children. It recognizes the importance of play as a natural mode of communication and expression for children. The therapist utilizes various play activities, such as games, art, and imaginative play, to engage with the child and facilitate the expression of thoughts, emotions, and experiences. This approach allows the therapist to gain insights into the child's world, build rapport, and address psychological challenges in a developmentally sensitive manner. Play-informed therapy can be effective in helping children explore and communicate their feelings, develop coping skills, and navigate challenges in a supportive therapeutic environment.
