Children
Counseling & Play Therapy
Our Children's
Cottage offers a unique environment for children. Play is basic
to the development of a child's physical, emotional, social, cognitive,
and spiritual well-being. Play Therapy provides a safe avenue and place
for children to express themselves freely in a manner most natural to
them ... through PLAY!
Did
you know?
- Play is the child's natural
way of communicating just as talking is the adult's natural way of
communicating.
- During play, children learn about
their physical surroundings, their own capabilities and limitations,
social rules, and the difference between fantasy and reality.
- Play promotes health development
in children.
Children can often communicate their difficulties more effectively
through play than they can through language.
How will Play Therapy benefit your child?
Research
supports the effectiveness of Play Therapy with children experiencing
a wide variety of social, emotional, behavioral, and learning problems,
including: post-traumatic stress; conduct disorder; aggression; anxiety/fearfulness;
depression, ADHD; impulsivity; low self-esteem; reading difficulties;
and social withdrawal. Play Therapy has been used successfully with
children whose problems are related to life stressors, such as divorce,
death, relocation, hospitalization, chronic illness, physical/sexual
abuse, domestic violence, and natural disasters.
