Store And Shopping Theme In Play Therapy

Aug 1, 2023

In this episode, I cover the Store and Shopping Theme. This theme falls under the Nurturing Theme category of themes in play therapy. In addition to discussing this theme in play sessions and its meanings, I discuss “parallel tracks” with other themes, such as the Power and Control theme.
