International Play Therapy Week ✨

This week, we’re celebrating the power of play therapy, and clearing up a few common misconceptions along the way.

Many people assume play therapy is “just playing,” but for children, play is so much more than fun. It’s how they communicate, process emotions, and work through challenges when words are hard to find.

Play therapy can support children with:
💛 anxiety
💛 big feelings
💛 behavior changes
💛 grief or transitions
💛 confidence and emotional growth

If you’ve ever wondered what really happens in the playroom, know that play therapy is an evidence-based, developmentally appropriate approach that helps children heal, grow, and thrive.

Hi! My name is Elizabeth Minger, and I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor and Registered Play Therapist located in Westlake Hills. Starting March 5, I will be offering a Virtual 10-week Child-Parent Relationship Therapy (CPRT) group!

Child-Parent Relationship Therapy (CPRT) is a supportive, evidence-based approach that helps strengthen the bond between caregivers and children through connection and play.

In this group, parents will learn how to:

• Use simple, effective play-based skills to improve communication and emotional understanding
• Help children feel seen, heard, and secure—often reducing challenging behaviors over time
• Respond with more confidence, empathy, and calm during big emotions and tough moments
• Grow alongside other caregivers in a warm, supportive group setting

In the playroom, kids don’t always use the “right” words, but they always tell the truth.
I hear bravery, worry, anger, hope, and so much creativity every day.
Play is their language. I’m just here to listen. ✨
