Play therapy uses play as a tool to address psychological issues in children aged 3 to 12. It helps them express feelings and resolve problems by using toys instead of words, making therapy more accessible to young minds. During play therapy, therapists provide children with various tools, including toys like action figures, art supplies, board games, and stuffed animals. These diverse items enable children to creatively explore and express their emotions, whether by acting out home-related issues or reenacting challenging or frightening situations.
