Play therapy hold value throughout therapy relationships, even into adulthood. The use of age appropriate play allows for a non judgmental means of expressing emotions.
When a child is playing with dolls, and acting with dolls, as family role play they may be involving fighting or shouting; this does not mean that this is happening in their own family they might just be playing. Play therapy is not directly dealing with the abuse; play therapy can be seen as a distraction to the actual problems.
Play therapy can be beneficial for children ages 3 to 12, although it can be adapted for teenagers and adults as well. The approach leverages play as a medium for self-expression and communication, making it particularly effective in addressing emotional and behavioral issues in younger children.
