Families Benefit When Children Play!
Just as adults feel better when talking through their problems,
Children Play!
Playful Therapy in St. Pete, Fl provides children the space and experienced counseling to help explore, express and work through their situation in their own way. This allows for increased confidence and creative problem solving skills.
Through play therapy, children learn to manage their feelings, thoughts, and experiences. Children regain a sense of control and safety in their lives, which leads to increased self-understanding and better relationships with friends and family.
Play Therapy is not just for children! Adults benefit from exploring their concerns in artistic and expressive ways as well. Sometimes, talking is just not enough. When a problem in our lives arise, it is more than helpful to be able to stand back and view it from many different angles. That is what Play Therapy allows.
Sand Tray work allows the creator to build the world that is being experienced currently. Through discussion and reflective observation with a trained therapist the creator has the ability to change or even just recognize obstacles that are causing barriers to moving forward. It is powerful, and empowering in a way that can only be experienced.
Other art creations allow the same, in a different way. Sometimes, we just don’t really know how to verbally express what is REALLY the problem, logic and emotion work together. It can be very helpful to allow your right brain to assist in life.
