Synergistic Play Therapy for Children (SPT)
Katy Psychological Services
What to Expect
Sessions take place in a specially designed playroom where the child is given the freedom to express themselves through play while the therapist remains attuned and responsive to what emerges. Rather than directing the child toward a specific outcome, the therapist follows the child’s lead, helping to regulate the child’s nervous system in real time as difficult emotions arise. Parents play an important role throughout treatment and will receive regular updates and guidance on how to support their child between sessions. Treatment length varies depending on the child’s presenting concerns and history. Mrs. Katie Robertson, our SPT specialist, can give you a better idea of an estimate of sessions after she has the chance to meet and discuss your specific needs.
Who is Play Therapy for?
Synergetic Play Therapy helps children work through big feelings using the language they know best, play. Through toys, art, games, stories, movement, and creative activities, children can share feelings that may be hard to explain with words.
In a safe and caring space, Katie Robertson, LPC, helps children learn to understand their emotions, calm their bodies, solve problems, and feel more confident. Therapy is not just about talking. It is also about helping children feel seen, supported, and understood.
Synergetic Play Therapy is designed for children ages 4 through 10. It can be especially helpful when a child is having a hard time at home, at school, with friends, or after a stressful life change.
