In Play Therapy, we prioritise the child’s unique needs, interests, and experiences. Our therapists provide a supportive and non-judgmental space where children can freely choose from a wide range of toys and materials to engage in play. This child-led approach allows them to express themselves, make choices, and take the lead in their own healing process.
Our therapists observe and actively participate in the child’s play, providing gentle guidance and support when needed. Through play, children often reveal their inner thoughts, feelings, and conflicts, helping our therapists gain valuable insights into their experiences and emotions. This enables us to develop a deep understanding of the child’s world and respond accordingly.

A child’s natural mode of learning and expression is often play. While adults may use counselling to help them through difficulties, children can struggle with talk-based methods while their cognitive abilities and verbal skills are developing. Play Therapy recognises the healing potential in play.
