Play Therapy
At Children, Adolessence and Beyond Psychotherapy Clinic
Play therapy is a gentle, child-centred approach that helps children express thoughts and feelings that can be difficult to put into words. Through play, art, storytelling and creative activities, children are supported to explore their inner world in a safe, attuned and non-judgemental space.
Who is it for?
Play therapy is suitable for children who may be experiencing anxiety, emotional distress, behavioural changes, family transitions, loss, trauma, social difficulties or challenges with confidence and self-esteem. It can be especially helpful when a child is finding it hard to talk openly about what they are going through.
