Child Therapy
Play Therapy is not just about play. Play Therapy is a way of being able to communicate with children without the use of verbal language. It provides a safe place and a safe relationship, where your child can fully express and explore their feelings, thoughts, experiences and behaviours. They can act out their earlier traumas, hurt, pain, jealousies and mistakes without the fear of failure or outside ridicule. Children are able to enter into their inner worlds where the adult language is no longer required for them to be understood. Children instinctively know their own inner healing, through the power of acceptance. Children develop self- esteem, confidence, and their learning and behaviours, and much more improve when they are understood, accepted and connected. Read More… Child Therapy
Adult Therapy
Are you a child, who has grown into an adult, who has never been understood or felt connected? Are you locked away feeling lost, unhappy and unable to express yourself fully for fear of rejection or not being understood? Have you grown up, and the child within you remains locked away. Maybe you are trying to communicate with your behaviours, but nobody can truly understand you. Maybe you don’t understand yourself. Play Therapy for adults is a creative therapy where you can explore your thoughts, feelings and unconscious mind using sand-tray therapy, drawing/art, creative visualisation and clay without the use of words. You can explore your inner world, understanding past patterns, pain or traumas in a safe non-judgemental environment, in a way that suits you. You don’t have to be artistic….it’s not about being great…..it’s about being allowed to express and be accepted, and most of all, it’s about being understood. Read More… Adult Therapy

Supervision
Are you a play therapist or counsellor and requiring the support of supervision sessions? I am a clinical supervisor who can support you in your work with the children you work with. Or maybe you are a parent that would like to talk about your child or your situation but are unsure about therapy or parent filial coaching sessions and you would like to have the support and the time to share with someone who is willing to listen and to understand, without judgement. You may not wish to commit to anything, but you would still like to have someone to help you make sense of your situation, to explore what it is that may help you. For many of us we may not even know what it is we need or what our children need and we just know that something isn’t working, and maybe you would like the time and space to explore this.
