Play Therapy is a specialised form of therapy designed to help children express their emotions and overcome psychological challenges through play. Play therapy works by providing a safe and nurturing environment where children can freely explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. 

During play therapy sessions, a trained play therapist engages the child in various directive and non-directive play using mediums such as art & drawing, clay, creative visualisation, dramatic role play, masks, movement, music, puppets, sand tray and therapeutic story-telling to name a few. Through these activities, the child is encouraged to communicate and act out their inner world, allowing the therapist to gain insights into their emotions, conflicts, and struggles.

Emotional Problems
