Child developmental therapy is a specific psychotherapeutic approach that takes into account the psychic dimension and the bodily dimension of each child. In developmental therapy, the therapist creates with the child a play space in which the child and the therapist will try to decode archaic emotional experiences. These experiences will take on their meaning in the relationship with the therapist.


THE OBJECTIVE OF CHILD DEVELOPMENT THERAPY The objective is for the child to be able to experience his motor skills in a space and a time of exchange and connection in order to expand his thinking apparatus and build his own mental container. The narcissistic and objective reinvestment which passes through the activity of the body supports the construction of the bodily self and allows mental elaboration to resume its course. Symbolic thinking can then develop through the emergence of fantasy scenarios that will be supported in their development. www.speakeasysolutionsllc.com
