Play therapy is a therapeutic approach that uses play to help children express their feelings and thoughts. In this safe and supportive environment, children can communicate through toys, games, and creative activities, allowing them to explore their emotions without the pressure of verbal communication. This method is particularly effective for children who may struggle to articulate their feelings due to trauma, anxiety, or other challenges. Therapists trained in play therapy observe and interact with children during play, gaining insights into their emotional world. By engaging with toys and art supplies, children can process their experiences and develop coping skills, ultimately leading to improved emotional well-being.
