In this episode of the Play Therapy Podcast, I respond to a question from Rob in Arizona about a child who hides toys and asks if they will be safe while he’s gone. Rob has been using reflective responses and recognizing the child’s investment in these toys, but he’s curious about how to continue supporting this theme of safety and permanence. I discuss how hiding toys often symbolizes a child’s need for control, trust, and security, especially in the context of relationship permanence.
I offer strategies for acknowledging changes in the child’s play, reflecting their need for safety, and enlarging the deeper meaning behind these actions. Whether it’s about control, anxiety, or testing the durability of the therapeutic relationship, staying consistent and enlarging the meaning can help the child process these complex feelings. This episode is a reminder of the impact CCPT has in helping children feel secure and understood.
