Therapy can be extremely helpful for young children. Children communicate very differently from adults, but they are so expressive in their own way. We are experts at understanding child communication and gaining an understanding of the emotional lives they don't yet have words for. We utilize play therapy to gain that understanding AND to treat whatever they are struggling with. Parents are obviously critical participants in the child's therapy, for their understanding is a huge part of what facilitate's the child's growth.

Children often express their experiences and feelings through play, and this becomes an important tool for learning about themselves and others. Children often express and resolve inner conflicts through their play. The therapist helps the child to express and understand the world through play activities - sometimes acting out conflicts and feelings, then interpreting (as appropriate to age) how a similar issue or feeling is present in the child's life.
