The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of child-centered play therapy on the children who have experienced parental divorce. The children who participated in the study were 9-year-old girl who was in the 3rd grade of elementary school. The difficulties of emotional regulation, anxiety, and difficulty of peer relationship were shown. In order to support children and foster parents emotionally, 43 individual play therapy and parent counseling were conducted. As a result of the study, the child tried to check the safety of her relationship with the therapist. After feeling the sense of safety, she began to express inner fear and dependence desire. In the early stage, the children's play themes were 'Exploration', 'Power/Control' and 'Nurturing' in the early stage and 'Power/Control', 'Dependence', 'Chaos/Instability' 'Relationship' as a theme. At the end stage, I completed the journey of recovery by showing the theme of 'Integration', 'Relationship' and 'Recovery/Resilience'.
