Research has shown again and again that having a secure attachment sets the foundation for a lifetime of healthy social, emotional, intellectual, and physical development.

 

Theraplay informed therapy is a highly experiential method that utilizes and recreates the process of developing a secure attachment between child and caregiver. Theraplay aims to create healthy relationships, and can help add to the child's sense of security, making positive changes to how the child views himself and the world around him. 

​

Theraplay informed therapy focuses on four dimensions of the parent-child relationship; structure, engagement, nurture, and challenge.
