Play Therapy Resources

Play Therapy

Play therapy uses play — a child's natural language — to help them process emotions and experiences they can't yet put into words. Learn how this approach works.

Play therapy uses toys, games, and imaginative play as the language children use to express feelings and work through problems.

Play therapy is primarily used with young children, though techniques can be adapted for older kids and preteens as well.

Yes, Overcomers accepts Medicaid and most major insurance plans for Play Therapy.

Play therapy is best done in person, though we offer it at our Colorado Springs, Aurora, Pueblo, and Fort Collins offices.

Play therapy commonly supports children navigating anxiety, family changes, grief, or behavioral concerns.
