Child and Play Therapy

Children’s therapy is a vital support system aimed at helping young individuals navigate emotional, behavioural, social, and developmental challenges. It provides a safe and structured environment where children can express their feelings, process experiences, and develop coping skills.

Common issues addressed in children’s therapy include: anxiety, depression, ADHD or other developmental disorders, trauma and loss, bullying and peer pressure, social and learning difficulties, family or life transitions.

Play therapy is a therapeutic approach specifically designed for children to help them express their emotions, resolve conflicts, and address behavioural or developmental challenges.

Key Features:

Nonverbal Expression: Through toys, games, art and imaginative activities, children can express thoughts and feelings they may not have the words for.

Therapeutic Relationship: The therapist builds a trusting relationship, observes play patterns, guides interactions, and introduces scenarios to encourage growth and healing.

Child-Centered and Direct Approaches: The child will lead the session and the therapist follows their play cues to understand their world and emotions (Child-Centred). The therapist introduces specific activities or themes to address particular issues (Direct).
