“Children use play to work through their experiences and feelings.”

- Jean Piaget

How Does it Work?

Play Therapy taps into the natural way children communicate — through play — to help them build the skills they need to understand and cope with life’s challenges.

In a Play Therapy session, children are free to choose how they’d like to spend their time, leading the session at a pace that feels right for them. The Play Therapy room is designed to encourage exploration and self-expression, offering a variety of creative and play-based activities such as:

  • Messy play
  • Clay and sensory materials
  • Puppets
  • Masks and role play
  • Sand tray play
  • Creative visualisation
  • Art and creative expression
  • Music
  • Therapeutic storytelling
  • Dance and movement

This flexible, child-led approach creates a safe space for children to express their thoughts and feelings while building confidence, resilience, and emotional understanding.
