Children's Psychotherapy
Nurturing Emotional Growth in Every Child
Is your child struggling with anxiety, low confidence, or emotional outbursts? Childhood can be overwhelming for many children, filled with challenges they might not know how to handle. As a parent, watching your child battle stress, trauma, or fear can be heart breaking. You may feel unsure of how to help them feel calm, confident, and understood.

Supporting Children’s Emotional Well-being
​
Having accumulated more than six years of experience working with children, I have developed a deep understanding of play therapy. My expertise lies in employing a range of therapeutic play techniques, including working with sand, play-doh, clay, puppets, and role-play. By utilising these methods, I help children to navigate and process complex emotions in a seamless manner. Through my practice, children are able to address their emotions subconsciously, resulting in a feeling of relaxation and ease.
My Experience
In my years of experience working with children from 4-year-olds to adolescents, I have found that establishing a secure and nurturing environment is paramount for their development. I have implemented various strategies to foster this environment, including encouraging role-playing and playtime. For the younger children, I specifically provide them with teddy bears and puppets, as I have observed that these tools effectively stimulate their imagination and creativity. Through these activities, I aim to create a dynamic and engaging atmosphere that promotes growth and learning.

My Approach
​
Each child will receive a personalised box to decorate during play therapy according to their unique vision. The creations made during the sessions will be safely stored in the box for the child to take home. During the initial session, a child-friendly agreement will be crafted to establish clear boundaries and expectations, fostering a safe environment for free and uninhibited self-expression. Embracing creativity and allowing expression without judgment are essential for empowering children to explore and express themselves freely.
