I am dedicated to nurturing children's wellbeing so that they can experience life knowing they are of value and having inner strengths to draw on. I work with children (3yrs - 12yrs) experiencing emotional, social and behavioural difficulties. I use play therapy to help children through both common childhood struggles and more serious concerns. Play is used because children can express more through play than they are able to with words, and because play provides a way for children to work through struggles that feels safe. Play therapy is an evidence based practice.
