Play Therapy Parenting Podcast


The path to calm, confident, and in-control parenting starts now

Mar 30, 2023

As parents, we all want our children to believe in themselves with confidence. But sometimes, even when we continue to reassure them, they lack the self-trust to tackle hard tasks or prove that they are capable. I got an email from a pitching coach (my son is a pitcher) discussing his take on what builds confidence in kids. He thinks that confidence comes from evidence of improvement, which aligns well with the play therapy philosophy.
 
In this episode, I discuss the following topics:
  • Battle between the head and heart
  • The identity the child is working to establish
  • What is the process of confidence coming from evidence
