Our Mission
Our mission is to create a safe, nurturing, and therapeutic environment where children
can freely express themselves through play, explore their emotions, and discover all
that they are and can be. We are committed to supporting children's emotional
wellbeing, fostering resilience, and empowering them to navigate life's challenges
with confidence and hope for the future.
What is Play Therapy?
Play therapy is a child- centred, therapeutic approach that allows children to express
their emotions, process their experiences, and explore personal issues that are
impacting their wellbeing. A trained therapist provides a safe, nurturing environment
where children can explore these issues at their own pace.
Play therapy uses the child’s natural means of communication (play) alongside a
creative toolkit (sand, toys, art, role play, music, puppets, movement, clay etc) in
order to offer a developmentally appropriate and effective means to help children
heal. These arts methods are also particularly effective in addressing trauma because
these experiences impact the structure and function of the brain, meaning that verbal
processing is not always possible.
