As a play therapist, your job is to provide therapy for children through the strategic use of toys and games. In each therapy session, you evaluate behavioral changes, discuss your client's needs and problems, and collaborate with other staff to address the unique issues and challenges each client faces. Play therapy is often used to help promote certain behaviors and habits, such as cooperating or setting and pursuing goals. Play therapists focus exclusively on these techniques, but you may occasionally delve into other strategies when helping families. Play therapists frequently work for schools and private healthcare facilities.
