Play Therapy
     
Play is a child's natural form of expression. During play therapy, play is used as a means of understanding and communicating with children in a non-threatening, non-demanding way. A safe relationship based in play provides the child a place to express feelings, thoughts, and experiences. The therapist works through the play to validate the child's feelings, and aid in an understanding of his or herself and their world. At Jowonio our School Psychologist as well as our social workers may work with children through play therapy.
