Bibliotherapy, often referred to as “reading therapy,” is an effective approach that utilises literature to support personal growth, healing, and overall well-being. It involves the careful selection of books, poems, or other written material that align with specific needs, concerns, or areas of personal development. It can be combined with a collaborative approach involving a therapist, creating a therapeutic reading and sharing experience.

Bibliotherapy often overlaps with writing therapy, as both involve the exploration of emotions, thoughts, and personal experiences through written material. The process of reading, reflecting, and sharing with a therapist can deepen the therapeutic benefits and promote self-expression.

This therapeutic approach is suitable for all ages and can be combined with play and creative therapy when working with children. By incorporating elements of play and creativity, children can engage with literature in a way that is enjoyable and meaningful, further enhancing their emotional well-being and personal development.
