Play therapy

Child-centered play therapy (CCPT) is an evidence-based therapeutic approach that emphasizes the importance of allowing children to freely express themselves through play in a safe and supportive environment. In CCPT, the therapist follows the child’s lead during play sessions, fostering trust and rapport while helping the child work through emotional challenges, build self-esteem, develop problem-solving skills, and enhance overall emotional well-being. This approach recognizes play as the natural language of children and utilizes it as a powerful tool for healing and growth.
