Play therapy is a mental health intervention in which trained play therapists apply a systematic theoretical model using therapeutic relationship and play to help clients “prevent or resolve psychosocial difficulties and achieve optimal growth and development” (Association for Play Therapy, 2019). Although therapists have facilitated play therapy with adult and adolescent populations, play therapy is primarily a developmentally-appropriate intervention for children aged 3-12 years. Play therapy is considered a counseling modality in which therapists use play as the primary language of the therapeutic relationship.
