Child Centred Play Therapy

When working with children, we use Child-Centered Play Therapy as our primary modality. This relationship-based counselling approach helps children communicate their inner experiences through the use of toys and play. Play is the natural language of children, and toys are their words. In a supportive therapeutic environment, a child can begin to process and make sense of their inner world, working through emotional fears, wounds, and experiences. The therapeutic relationship between the child and therapist creates a safe space that fosters growth and healing.

Play Therapy is effective for children aged 3+ and can be used to address a variety of concerns, including:

  • Trauma
  • Anxiety
  • School Difficulties
  • Confidence and Self-Esteem
  • Selective Mutism
  • ADD/ADHD
  • Autism Spectrum Disorder
  • Family Separation & Loss
  • Bullying
  • Grief & Loss
  • Phobias
  • Emotion Regulation
  • Development Delays
  • Chronic Illness
