Explaining Therapy to your child
Going to a therapist can seem scary or confusing for a child. It doesn’t have to be that way. KidsHealth has some helpful ways of explaining the whys and whats to your child.
Lisa Dion, LPC, RPT-S recommends the following when explaining to a child why they may visit with a therapist: I know you have been having a hard time, we've been having a hard time. You deserve to have your special place where you get to play or talk or whatever it is that you need to do so you feel the best that you can feel. You really deserve this. I want this for you."
