About Play therapy house
Play Therapy House: A Safe Haven for Children's Emotional and Mental Health
Play Therapy House is a counseling center located in Boise, Idaho that specializes in providing individual Play Therapy sessions for children between the ages of 3-18. Our mission is to create a safe and nurturing environment where children can express themselves freely, explore their emotions, and develop healthy coping mechanisms.
At Play Therapy House, we understand that every child is unique and has different needs when it comes to therapy. That's why we take a flexible and creative approach to counseling in order to meet each client where they are both emotionally and developmentally. Our team of licensed therapists are trained in various therapeutic modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Sand Tray therapy, Art therapy, EMDR therapy etc., which allows us to tailor our treatment plans according to the specific needs of each child.
Our Play Therapists use play as a medium for communication with children because it is their natural language. Through play, children can express themselves without feeling judged or misunderstood. They can act out their feelings through toys or games which helps them process difficult emotions such as anger, sadness or anxiety.
We believe that parents play an important role in their child's emotional well-being; therefore we offer parenting consultation services as well. Our therapists work closely with parents to help them understand their child's behavior patterns better so they can provide appropriate support at home.
In addition to individual counseling sessions and parenting consultations, we also offer community education programs on various topics related to mental health such as stress management techniques for kids & teens; how trauma affects brain development; how parents can support their LGBTQ+ kids etc., These programs are designed not only for parents but also educators who work with children on a daily basis.
At Play Therapy House our goal is not just about treating symptoms but also about helping children develop resilience and emotional intelligence. We believe that every child deserves a safe space to explore their emotions and we are committed to providing that space for them.
