What is play therapy?
Play therapy is a form of therapy that helps children and adults address behavioral, emotional, and mental health problems by using play to explore their feelings. It’s often used in situations where traditional therapy is not effective or when the client is too young to participate fully in more formal treatment.
While it may look like a regular playtime, play therapy can be much more. A trained therapist can use playtime to observe and gain insights into a child’s problems. The therapist can help the child explore emotions and deal with unresolved trauma. Through play, children can learn new coping mechanisms and how to redirect inappropriate behaviors.
Although people of all ages can benefit from play therapy, it’s typically used with children between the ages of 3 and 12. Play therapy may be helpful in a variety of circumstances, such as:
- facing medical procedures, chronic illness, or palliative care
- developmental delay or learning disabilities
- problem behaviors in school
- aggressive or angry behavior
- family issues, like divorce, separation, or death of a close family member
- natural disasters or traumatic events
- domestic violence, abuse, or neglect
- anxiety, depression, grief
