CLINICAL APPROACH
Voice of the Child is an approach used mainly in family and child-focused therapy that centers the child's feelings, thoughts, and perspective as a real part of the process, not just something adults interpret on their behalf. It helps children feel heard and understood, which supports both their sense of self-worth and the family's ability to communicate.
Voice of the Child is a family-therapy approach that centers a child's own feelings and perspective, helping them feel genuinely heard within the family process.
