Play Therapy is the systematized use of play with a Registered Play Therapist, where a child is allowed to explore, grow, be challenged, and process a variety of mental health concerns. As a Registered Play Therapist, my work with children experiencing Disruptive Behavior Disorders (DBD's) has been significantly enhanced and improved by using Play Therapy interventions. During Play Therapy, the therapist will set limits when appropriate and guide the child on how to improve appropriate behavior in a different contexts. The limit setting that takes place in Play Therapy generally uses an emotion coaching format. The therapist first acknowledges the child's desire, feeling, or behavior, "I can see that you really want to jump on the couch...", then the therapist communicates the limit, "...but in the play room the couch is not for jumping on...", which is followed up by an appropriate alternative, "...if you want to jump, we can go outside and you can jump off the curb." When this language and this format is used consistently, the child learns that certain behaviors are appropriate only in certain contexts. When the time is right, I also include parents in the play sessions to help them get used to my language. This allows the parents to see the child being compliant without threats of consequences and without force. I teach parents how to use this language at home. When parents and myself are using the same language, the child learns quickly how to respond appropriately to limits, and how to comply to requests for better behavior.
