Developmental play therapy (DT) is a neurodiversity affirming therapeutic practice to support children with developmental, learning, or interactional differences in their natural environments. The goal is to address a child's developmental capacities while enhancing interactions and relationships.
We believe in the power of engagement, the importance of warm and meaningful relationships, and understanding a child's individual abilities and needs. Playtime, Inc. offers a unique, individualized approach to more traditional developmental therapy. Informed by the DIRFloortime® model and Infant/Early Childhood Mental Health (I/ECMH) practices, we partner with families and enhance a child's development through play and social connections.
“DIRFloortime® (also known as Floortime) is an intervention that is used to promote an individual's development through a respectful, playful, joyful, and engaging process. It uses the power of relationships and human connections to promote engagement, communication, positive behaviors, and thinking.” - ICDL
