Abstract
Most children who do not have broad verbal abilities and complex thoughts like adults, express themselves through play and regulate possible emotions such as anger, fear, and shame by playing games. Perceiving the child's world through play is important not only for therapists but also for parents. The aim of this study, which includes a case report and with the integration of Positive and Intercultural Psychotherapy (Peseschkian, N., 1968) to play therapy, was to strengthen unity, love, patience and trust between family members and support them in acquiring effective parenting skills. For this aim, a method including the philosophy, principles, content and methodology of Positive and Intercultural Psychotherapy have been adapted to play therapy was employed, and parents (12 male and 12 female) and their children were included in the progressive play environment and allowed to interact through modelling. As a result, It has been observed that parents are more effective in coping with the challenges they face and adapt to each other in a relationship based on personal development after parent and child therapy sessions are completed. Overall, the study confirms that such a model can be used for empowering similar studies of field workers.
