Play therapy is a form of therapy that works particularly well with children. This form of therapy is based upon the fact that play is the natural medium of a child’s self-expression. It is an opportunity which is given to the child to “play out” his/her feelings and problems just as, in certain types of adult therapy, an individual “talks out” his/her difficulties. Different from regular child’s play, a play therapist helps children to address and resolve their own problems. Children naturally use play to learn about themselves and their relationships in the world around them. Through play therapy, children learn to communicate with others, express feelings, modify behavior, develop problem-solving skills, and learn a variety of ways of relating to others. Play provides a safe psychological distance from their problems and allows expression of thoughts and feelings appropriate to their development.
