Many parents worry they’re bad parents if they ask for help. Perhaps you can relate. Maybe you’ve tried every trick in the book (or on the internet) but have seen no changes. You might be starting to feel like your child runs the house. You feel like you don’t know how or can’t help your child.
If these sound true for you, I want you to know that you are not a failure of a parent and your child is not a bad or hopeless kid. You are brave for admitting that you and your family need help.
You will get the practical tools you need to uncover your parental strengths and help your child overcome life’s challenges.
I’ve helped children with severe emotional and behavioral issues to express themselves in a more healthy, proactive way and reconnect with their families in the process. Children feel understood and loved through connection. Parents learn and bring the skills home with them. This is the beauty of beginning play therapy. But, we understand you may still have questions about the process.
Play Therapy in Florida consists of not only one-on-one sessions with the child but also parent consultations. You, the parent, are the expert on your child and I plan to utilize you as such.
Children typically don’t possess the words to express themselves as adults do. Play is their form of communication and emotional expression.
Through play and other expressive arts, your child will create and use their own problem-solving skills. Your child will become more responsible for their behaviors and learn to respect themself and others. More importantly, your child will develop a sense of self-efficacy which will lead to an assurance of their TRUE SELF.
The pandemic has created many obstacles. BUT just as with life’s challenges, we get creative to find solutions! You and your child may be asked to have certain objects handy. More likely, you will be amazed by the number of online therapy resources created by PLAYFUL and CREATIVE play therapists.
