Play Therapy

Play Therapy is a developmentally appropriate, evidence-based approach for children ages 1–5. Through play, children express emotions, process experiences, and learn healthier ways to manage big feelings and behaviors.
In sessions, Amy creates a safe, nurturing space where your child can explore emotions and build skills for communication, problem-solving, and social connection. Parents are actively involved to better understand their child’s needs and reinforce progress at home.

Common goals include:

Emotional regulation and self-expression
Cooperation and listening skills
Reducing tantrums and impulsive behavior
Building confidence and resilience

Parent-Child Inclusion Therapy

Parent–Child Inclusion Therapy invites parents into the therapy process to strengthen connection, communication, and cooperation with their young child.
Guided by a licensed play therapist, sessions combine play-based strategies and emotional coaching to help parents better understand their child’s needs and respond with confidence.

You’ll learn how to:

Foster positive, responsive interactions
Understand your child’s emotional cues
Manage daily routines and transitions calmly
Build secure attachment and mutual trust

Parent Coaching

Sibling Interaction Therapy

Sibling Interaction Therapy helps brothers and sisters build positive connections through guided play. These sessions are ideal for established families who have completed foundational therapy and want to strengthen sibling relationships at home.
Through playful, structured activities, Amy helps children practice communication, cooperation, empathy, and problem-solving skills that support harmony and teamwork in everyday life.

At Fort Worth & Southlake Play Therapy, we work with families to navigate the common difficulties young children face, providing targeted support for parents, caregivers, and siblings.

Let's Work Together

The first step is to assess the needs of the family and identify what areas they would like to work on in therapy. Once the specific needs are identified, the therapist can work with the family to develop a treatment plan that may include individual, parent-child, and/or family therapy. The therapist will also provide education and support to the family members on how to best communicate and interact with each other.
