Hello, I’m Zoe. I am a play and creative arts therapist based in Bourne and I see children from 3 to 16. Do you know a child with big emotions? Are these emotions hard to manage? Play therapy can help children process their emotions and make sense of their worlds. I also offer parenting support. I know how hard parenting can be and I’m passionate about offering a holistic service. I am an advocate of therapeutic parenting, playful parenting and attachment play. I like to work with parents to help support the therapeutic process and provide ways to foster co-operation, connection and play.
How does play therapy help? Play therapy helps children express themselves. As adults talk about their problems, children play out how they feel. As a therapist I hold their space and support them through the therapeutic process. Often this may mean being sprinkled in glitter or covered in sand, whatever my clients bring to session is what we work through.
Play therapy is one of the most effective forms of child therapy because play is a child’s language and toys are their words. During session they can make choices, process what they need to and develop confidence and self acceptance. I also provide thera-play informed practice which is a dyadic parent/carer and child therapy. Helpful for foster and adoption
