Play Therapy 

A developmentally appropriate form of counselling that uses play as the primary way for children to express thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Since children often lack the verbal skills to fully explain what they are going through, play therapy provides a safe, supportive space where toys, art, storytelling, and creative activities become tools for communication and healing.

​

In practice, trained therapists observe and engage with a child’s play to help them process emotions, develop problem-solving skills, improve self-expression, and build healthier relationships. Play therapy can be beneficial for children experiencing anxiety, behavioural challenges, trauma, grief, family transitions, or social difficulties.

​

By meeting children at their level, play therapy fosters resilience and supports emotional growth in a way that feels natural and empowering for the child.
