Description
Another "Principle of Play Therapy"... "If You Know Enough To Ask A Question, Then You Know Enough To Make A Statement." Questions put children in their heads, but children live in their hearts. How do we reflectively respond without asking questions? This principle is the answer to that question. Making statements, vs asking questions, is a critical skill that every child-centered play therapist needs to master.
