Play Therapy

Play therapy is an effective child-led therapeutic intervention, using a variety of play and creative art methods, known as the 'toolkit'. It can alleviate children's emotional and behavioural difficulties, without the need to talk.

Play is the child's natural medium for self-expression, to figure out their inner worlds.

As a play therapist I will provide a safe environment and a trusting relationship, whereby the child can 'play out' their feelings. I will help the child recognise and understand their emotions and help the child develop coping skills.
