I use a range of wellbeing techniques including reflexology (gentle foot massage), energy healing, creative visualisation and therapeutic play to support children to process the challenges they are experiencing in their life and help them to become happier. These techniques will help build balance and promote feelings of peace, centredness, and concentration. My playroom contains natural materials including sand, toys, instruments, puppets and art equipment that will help your child to explore and find ways of playing out their feelings. These materials will act as a vehicle of expression supporting children process and integrate the challenges they are experiencing. Over time, their sessions with me can help to calm any worries or fears your child may have and enable them to be able to cope better with potentially challenging situations. Children often find it difficult to express their feelings and experiences into words. Play is the language of children. Therapeutic play, relaxation techniques and fun create positive circuitry in the brain. Children will feel safer and more validated after experiencing sessions with my Playful Therapies technique, and will be better able to learn and thrive. Please be reassu red that your child will be treated with gentleness, kindness and respect throughout their time with me.
