Theraplay Group
Play-based group therapy that builds stronger bonds between children and caregivers.
What is Theraplay?
Theraplay is an evidence-based, attachment-focused play therapy approach that strengthens the caregiver-child bond through guided, joyful, and nurturing activities. Rooted in attachment theory, Theraplay uses play to build trust, emotional regulation, and resilience in a developmentally supportive environment.
