About Play Therapy

Play Therapy is for children aged 3 to 12 years and has proven to be the most effective way to help children heal and deal with challenges. It is shown that due to the child’s brain development Talk Therapy will not be effective. Children explore and express themselves through play and it is therefore their natural language.

 

Through play, children can act out what is bothering them metaphorically and therapists are trained to support them. We use play materials to assist children in exploring their feelings and to help them cope with challenging life events/experiences.
