I love doing therapy in person and have always had success engaging my clients with my favourite games, stories, drawing exercises, and pretend play. However, I noticed that many of my clients were drawn to technology, whether it was playing games, journaling or creating digital art. I wondered, instead of seeing screens as distractions, what if I could use them as a tool for deeper engagement and connection? What if digital tools could help my clients express themselves?
That’s when I started using PlaySpace’s digital tools, like the 3D Dollhouse, Sand Tray, and AI Storybook Builder in my in-person sessions. I was amazed at how quickly they became a natural part of my work and increased engagement with my clients. Now, I can:
PlaySpace’s digital tools, like the 3D Dollhouse and Sand Tray, help clients express their feelings creatively in ways traditional materials can’t, making them feel more in control
The AI Storybook Builder lets clients create or co-create stories from scratch, providing a fun, creative way to explore emotions and share experiences.
Using digital tools in therapy makes sessions more engaging and familiar, as many kids and teens are already comfortable with technology.
