Medical Play Therapy

Medical Play Therapy supports children and families to prepare for diagnoses, procedures, surgeries, injuries or illnesses.

Medical Play Therapy supports children in a child centred, play based way to encounter their clinic or hospital experience. Anything from vaccinations to surgery, medical play therapy can help to limit medical based trauma. Medical Play Therapy can also support families with supporting their child through medical experiences, illnesses or new diagnoses. It can be used to work through medical based trauma following the experience.
