Play Therapy is a specialized form of therapy that uses play as a medium to help children express their emotions and work through difficult experiences.

At Saafe Behavioral Services, we understand that children often have a hard time expressing their emotions and experiences in traditional talk therapy. That’s why we offer Play Therapy as one of our specialized therapy services to help children work through difficult experiences and improve their mental health and well-being.

Play Therapy is a form of psychotherapy that uses play as a medium to help children express their emotions and experiences. The therapist creates a safe and comfortable environment where children can play with toys, games, and other materials, and use them to express themselves. This allows children to communicate their thoughts, feelings, and experiences in a way that is natural to them.

During Play Therapy sessions at Saafe, the therapist will observe the child’s play and use it as a way to understand their thoughts and feelings. The therapist will also use various techniques such as storytelling, role-playing, and art to help the child work through difficult experiences. The therapist will work closely with the child’s parents or caregivers to provide support and guidance in helping the child improve their mental health and well-being.

Play Therapy is an effective form of therapy for children of all ages and can help them work through a wide range 
of emotional and behavioral issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, and behavioral problems. It can also help children develop social and emotional skills, improve self-esteem, and increase their ability to cope with difficult situations.

We are proud to offer Play Therapy as one of our specialized therapy services. Our team of skilled therapists is trained to work with children of all ages and provide a safe and comfortable environment for them to express themselves. If you are concerned about your child’s emotional or behavioral well-being, we encourage you to consider Play Therapy as a treatment option.
