Ruth Saunders
Pre-Licensed Professional, M.ED, Resident
Children and teens speak a different language than their caregivers. In therapy, the most effective language for working with children is play. In my work with teens, I also pull from play therapy but usually incorporate art, sand tray, board games, and other activities that make it easier for my younger clients to express their thoughts and feelings about life, and to take in any feedback about their emotional journey. Play therapy is an incredibly effective way to help children overcome intense emotions, process difficult experiences, and resolve inner conflict.
