Children with disabilities represent a marginalized population who confront many obstacles in achieving optimal health and social experiences (Laudan & Loprest, 2012). Specifically, children with disabilities encounter various obstacles towards adjusting to a different way of living. Many children with disabilities experience societal and attitudinal barriers that further exacerbate the disability adaptation process. As a result, clinical counselors hold a foundational role towards empowering children with disabilities (Henderson & Thompson, 2011). However, practitioners must maintain a level of competence and understanding of the common challenges that children with disabilities encounter. Unfortunately, there remain significant limitations in the counseling research for serving children with disabilities. Considering the diversity of cognitive, verbal, and motor functioning of children with disabilities, clinicians must explore more innovating treatment modalities for serving children with disabilities.

520 $a Children with disabilities represent a marginalized population who confront many obstacles in achieving optimal health and social experiences (Laudan & Loprest, 2012). Specifically, children with disabilities encounter various obstacles towards adjusting to a different way of living. Many children with disabilities experience societal and attitudinal barriers that further exacerbate the disability adaptation process. As a result, clinical counselors hold a foundational role towards empowering children with disabilities (Henderson & Thompson, 2011). However, practitioners must maintain a level of competence and understanding of the common challenges that children with disabilities encounter. Unfortunately, there remain significant limitations in the counseling research for serving children with disabilities. Considering the diversity of cognitive, verbal, and motor functioning of children with disabilities, clinicians must explore more innovating treatment modalities for serving children with disabilities.
520 $a The purpose of this study was to gain a greater understanding of the play therapy experience for children with disabilities who participated in play therapy services at The Child Protection Center of Ross County. Since it is common that counseling professionals serve children with disabilities, this study offers professionals additional insight into the potential benefit of play therapy for children with disabilities. This dissertation provides a rich thick description of the experiences of five children who participated in play therapy intervention with a child advocacy center in south central, Ohio.
520 $a This dissertation employs qualitative research that uses naturalistic inquiry. This qualitative study utilized separate semi-structured, open-ended interviews with five children with disabilities who were served by a child advocacy center in southern, Ohio. Additional interviews were conducted with three of the caregivers of these children, and two play therapists who were responsible for delivering play therapy services. All of the children who participated in the study are residents of southern, Ohio and were referred for play therapy intervention in through the local child advocacy center. Each interview provides an avenue to generate and describe the play therapy experience for children with disabilities. Data was collected through digitally recorded semi-structured interviews, field notes, and observations.
520 $a This qualitative inquiry addressed one research question. What are the experiences of children with disabilities who participated in play therapy services at The Child Protection Center of Ross County? The analysis of interviews, observations and field notes generated eight emerging themes. These emerging and salient themes were then compared and contrasted with prior literature that explores the use of play therapy for children with disabilities. In addition to the descriptions provided from the data of this discovery, outcomes from this investigation further offer implications for a variety of professionals who work with children with disabilities. Findings from this examination have provided valuable data that can enhance services for children with disabilities who are served by a variety of professional. However, specific recommendations are delineated for clinical counselors and rehabilitation counselors. Recommendations for future research are also discussed within the context of this inquire.
