Emperical evidence supports its effectiveness in promoting positive outcomes in children who have undergone play therapy. This includes improvement in emotional regulation, behavior, social skills, and overall psychological well-being.

Play Therapy aligns with the natural way children communicate and process emotions—through play. By allowing the child to take the lead in the therapeutic process, this approach respects and supports the child's developmental stage, meeting the child where they are.

Play Therapy allows the child to take the initiative, make choices and guide the therapeutic process during sessions, empowering them to express themselves in a way that feels natural and comfortable to them.
Powers of Play
Powers of play refer to the therapeutic benefits inherent in the act of play, allowing a child to express emotions, explore experiences, and develop coping skills.
Safe and Supported
