Engaging kids in the therapy process can prove challenging. Often times, children are not seeking treatment on their own and are usually "made" to see a counselor due to emotional or behavioral concerns. Due to this, many counselors employ a number of techniques to build rapport and encourage clients to open up and share their feelings. A few interventions involve interactive games or activities that introduce a certain level of fun and excitement into the sessions. Some of these are specifically designed to target social-emotional issues while others help in relationship building with the kid or teen.
