Children often do not have the words to explain big emotions, stress, or confusing experiences. Play therapy is a developmentally appropriate form of child therapy that allows children to express thoughts and feelings through play; their natural language.Using toys, art, games, and imaginative play, a trained therapist helps children process experiences, build emotional regulation skills, and develop resilience in a safe, supportive environment. For families seeking child therapy in Barrie, play therapy is one of the most effective approaches for children ages 3–12.
