Aggression in Play Therapy: A Neurobiological Approach for Integrating Intensity Free Audiobook Download by Lisa Dion


To understand how aggression arises in childhood, it is important to first look at the nature of play. The neurobiology of play teaches us that children are biologically programmed to play. Play is a signal that helps prepare the brain and body for survival, or what can be called "stress inoculation." When children engage in playful activities they reactivate their neuro-circuitry which has been turned off during stressful moments.

Lisa Dion explores how aggression in play therapy is a natural part of the human condition. The author notes that aggression can be an understandable reaction to a perceived threat or harm, and it can also be used as a strategy for meeting goals. When children are allowed to express such feelings, they are able to explore better ways of getting what they want while still being understood and accepted.

Play therapy is a great way to work on both what causes and what helps prevent aggression. There are some things that you can do to help your child become more cooperative and more in control, such as using methods from the physiological approach of play therapy. This includes using the tones of voice, gestures, and playspace to guide children's interactions with one another.
