How to Talk to Your Child About Therapy
A Simple Guide for Parents by a special child school in Dwarka Delhi
Start the Conversation
Use calm, encouraging language like:
● “Therapy is like having a helper who teaches us new things.”

● “You’ll play, talk, and learn with someone really nice.”

● “Just like we go to the doctor for our body, therapy helps with words and feelings.”

Age-Appropriate Phrases
Toddlers:
“You’ll meet a friend who plays and helps you talk.”
Ages 5–10:
“Therapy is for learning how to express feelings and make things easier.”
Tweens:
“It’s a safe space to talk and work on anything that feels hard.”
Ease Fear and Stigma
● Avoid words like “fix” or “problem.”

● Say: “Lots of kids go to therapy-it's like a coach for your mind.”

● Be open. Let them ask questions and express feelings.

● Talking honestly and positively builds trust.
