In this episode, we delve into the "Broken Play Theme" in child-centered play therapy's category of safety and control themes. Exploring Broken Play Theme: Children depict brokenness in their play through two lenses: a broken self or a broken object. This theme delves into hurt, sickness, and damage, whether internal or external. Healing and Insights: Broken play offers a unique healing potential, allowing children to confront and mend their perceptions of brokenness, whether within themselves, relationships, or the world.
