Children learn to communicate with others, express feelings, modify behavior, develop problem-solving skills, and learn a variety of ways of relating to others. Even the most troubling problems can be confronted in play therapy and lasting resolutions can be discovered, rehearsed, mastered, and adapted into lifelong strategies. Play therapy is most often used with children ages 3-12 and usually occurs in weekly sessions, it can take an average of 20 sessions to resolve problems.
Some children may improve faster, while others may have more serious or ongoing problems that may take longer to resolve.
