Play Therapy
Play therapy is beneficial to a child who is experiencing difficulties in the home, school or community. It is a therapeutic approach for human service professionals as stated by Virginia Axline, "provides an opportunity for the child to 'play out' his or her feelings and problems just as, in certain adult therapy, an individual 'talks out' his or her difficulties". A child's self-understanding is one of the goals in this approach.

Shame and Its Recognition
- The feeling of shame can be described as a sense of smallness, worthlessness, and powerlessness in a given situation. It is triggered by a "perceived" break in one's connectedness to others or to oneself. This is compounded by feeling exposed and extremely concerned about another's evaluation of oneself. Shame can be defined as the emotional experience of another's disdain or disgust, real or imagined.
