How Can Play Therapy Help?
Children don't always have the words to explain how they're feeling, but they often communicate through play. Play therapy provides a safe, accepting space where children can explore emotions, process experiences and develop healthier ways of coping.
Play therapy may support children experiencing:
Anxiety and excessive worries
Anger and big emotions
Low confidence and self-esteem
Friendship and social difficulties
Trauma and adverse childhood experiences
Bereavement and loss
Family separation, divorce and changes at home
Emotional regulation difficulties
School anxiety and emotionally based school avoidance (EBSA)
Neurodiversity, including autism and ADHD
Bullying
Life transitions, including changing schools or moving home
Every child's experience is different. Sessions are tailored to each child's individual needs, allowing them to communicate, heal and grow through the natural language of play.
