How Play Therapy Can Make a Difference in Your Child's Life
Meet Rhett Campbell, Play Therapist
As a parent, it can be incredibly hard to watch your child struggle — especially when they don’t have the words to explain what they’re feeling. That’s where Rhett comes in.
Rhett Campbell is a play therapist who works with children and adolescents navigating trauma, anxiety, emotional regulation challenges, and identity-related stress. He understands that many children simply can’t “talk it out” — and they shouldn’t have to.
Play is a child’s natural language, and through play, children show us what they’re carrying inside.
How Rhett Helps
Rhett uses a trauma-informed, developmentally sensitive approach to help children:
Process difficult or overwhelming experiences
Build emotional awareness and coping skills
Improve emotional regulation
Strengthen their sense of safety and security
Develop confidence and resilience
Sessions are designed to feel safe, predictable, and supportive. Through consistency and attuned connection, Rhett helps children learn that their feelings make sense — and that they can handle them.
Partnering With Parents
At WPA Kids, we believe therapy works best when caregivers are part of the process. Rhett works collaboratively with parents and caregivers to:
Understand what behaviors may be communicating
Support emotional regulation at home
Build stronger parent-child connection
Create practical strategies that actually work in real life
He views behavior not as something to punish or “fix,” but as meaningful communication. When we understand the message behind the behavior, change becomes possible.
A Safe, Affirming Space
Rhett is committed to providing affirming, nonjudgmental care. He strives to create an environment where children feel seen and respected — and where parents feel supported, understood, and never blamed.
If you’re wondering whether your child might benefit from play therapy, we’re here to help you take the next step. You don’t have to navigate this alone.
