Play therapy is to children what counselling is to adults. Children express their challenges through immersive play. This includes the use of toys, puppets, drawing, kinetic sand and more.
Sometimes, parenting seems just so damn hard! Parent/carer consultations offer caregivers the opportunity to talk with the therapist to assess their child's needs, and work on ways to ease tensions and challenges.
There are times Family discussions can be beneficial to uncover and address issues rooted in family dynamics. Understanding how the family operates can lead to creating a new path forward.
Need a space to talk about your struggles? Whether from the past or current, big or small, this is your space to share and process.
As a qualified mental health social worker and specialist in play and narrative therapy, I have dedicated two decades to working with children. From the moment I received my social work degree, my career has revolved around supporting young individuals and families within the realm of human services. Additionally, I have served as the coordinator of a grassroots organisation in Melbourne, emphasising issues of family violence and sexual assault.
