Play Therapy is a structured child therapy method that builds on the knowledge and usual communicative manner of children. Play therapy is applied for various emotional, behavioral, and social disorders with play therapy being used as a first intervention. Because children struggle with communicating their views and emotions--play therapy is a great method.
