The study aimed to investigate the effects of play therapy on both young children who were at risk of social and behavioral problems and mothers’ parenting stress. Across three time points through play therapy, the study also examined the changes in children’s social competence, internalizing problems, externalizing problems, and mothers’ parenting stress by applying play therapy. Seven children and their mothers participated in this study. Parenting Stress Index (PSI) and Friedman test, Wilcoxon test, and descriptive statistics were used for data analysis. Significant differences were found on all the following four variables; children’s social competence, internalizing problems, externalizing problems, and mothers’ parenting stress. This indicated that the positive effects were shown on children’s social competence, internalizing problems, externalizing problems, and mothers’ parenting stress through play therapy.
