The objective of this study was to investigate socially disadvantaged children’s perceptions, feelings, and attitudes towards the treatment intervention Group Theraplay. The treatment acceptability of Group Theraplay has largely been un-explored, making this an explorative study. Due to limited research, the literature review was expanded to include the effectiveness of Group Theraplay. The literature review identified four studies evaluating the effectiveness of Group Theraplay. Two of these included an element around treatment acceptability of Group Theraplay. The objective of this study was carried out through a small qualitative case-study design with nine children who attended the village at Stand Tū Māia Christchurch, using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis. The analysis of the children’s interviews revealed two superordinate themes: enjoyment of Group Theraplay and positive social emotional skills. Results also identified Group Theraplay activity recall in the children’s interviews. These themes suggested children’s experience of Group Theraplay was overall positive, and children enjoyed participating in the sessions, therefore meaning Group Theraplay has high treatment acceptability among socially disadvantaged children. Study implications and limitations are discussed with recommendations to future research outlined. This study concluded that Group Theraplay has a high treatment acceptability in socially disadvantaged children.
