When we talk about diagnosis in children, it’s easy to feel like we’re "boxing them in." But at PlayTherapySpace, we view diagnosis through a different lens: The Child-Centered Perspective.

A diagnosis isn’t a definition of who the child is—it’s a guide to how they experience the world. 🌍❤️

Why it matters:

• It validates their struggle: It tells the child, "There is a reason why this feels hard for you, and it’s not your fault."
• It’s a roadmap for support: It helps us stop asking "Why are they doing this?" and start asking "What do they need right now?"
• It builds a bridge: It helps parents, teachers, and therapists speak the same language to support the child's unique nervous system.Want to dive deeper into the world of child-centered therapy? 🎧 Tune into our latest podcast episode: "Beyond the Label: Seeing the Child Behind the Diagnosis." 🔗 [Link in Bio to Listen & Follow!]
