Play Therapy is a holistic, non-directive, child led therapy grounded in psychological theory and neurobiological evidence, working with a baseline assessment and goal based therapeutic objectives to support children with social, emotional and mental health needs. Confidential sessions allow the child time to process their thoughts and feelings using creative mediums of sand, art, clay, puppets, music and movement, therapeutic storytelling, creative visualization, drama amongst other toys. I also include sensory play using a range of materials to incorporate nature within the playroom. These mediums allow the child to express themselves in the natural form of communication for a child, ‘play’. Therapeutic sessions offer the opportunity to build a trusting relationship with the Play Therapist whereby the therapist attunes into the child’s communications and emotions to reflect where appropriate and mirror and match energy to allow the child to process unconscious and conscious events. This supports neural pathways to develop and co-ordinate the three areas of the brain. Thus, play therapy helps children move forwards from difficult life experiences and develop a sense of self.
