Introduction to Play and Play Therapy

There is so much more going on in play than you think! It has tremendous power to heal, activate the brain and show you a person's worldview. That's why I am a Play Therapist. It provides access like nothing else! Here's a peek inside some of the things happening in your child's play.

Plato said “You can discover more about a person in an hour of play than a year of conversation.” Fred Rogers said "Play is often talked about as if it were a relief from serious learning. But for children play is serious learning. Play is really the work of childhood." This is what drew me to become a Play Therapist.
