Is My Child Old Enough for Counseling?

If you’re worried that your child is too young for counseling, don’t be. Play therapy is a research-based approach that helps young children to develop skills to improve their behaviors and learn new ways of coping with challenges. Behaviors tend to worsen over time without intervention, yet parents and even some professionals believe that they should just wait until the elementary school years because things will work themselves out. Problems rarely work themselves out without intervention and it’s a much better idea to bring your child in now, before the behaviors become even more severe.
