Play Therapy

Play is the child's language. Through play children are able to be expressive specifically for the things in which they do not have verbal language. While it is assumed that play therapy is for younger children, it is also effective for teens and adults. Our therapist can help with the following:

  • Behavioral Issues

  • Emotion Management

  • Trauma

  • Life Transitions

  • Grief

  • Relational Issues

  • Self-Identity/Self-Esteem

  • Anxiety

  • Depression

  • Self-Harm​

Listed are some of the approaches that are used in therapy in play therapy. This is not all inclusive and our therapists integrate several approaches to create a customize experience for you.

1 

Child-Centered Play Therapy

CCPT is a non-directive approach that allows a child to explore and play within a strategically set up playroom. Through this process the therapist supports the child in developing language and processing experiences through verbal reflections. 

2

Sandtray Therapy

Sandtray is a therapeutic approach that allows for non-verbal processing. Sandtray is an expressive therapy that lets the client tell their story through a visual representation. This integrates well with other approaches to aid in reaching goals. Sandtray is great for pre-teens, teens, adults, and couples.
