Play Therapy for Children
(ages 4 to 12)

Child Centred: At its core, play therapy is child-centred. It provides a safe environment where children can play out feelings, explore relationships, and make sense of their experiences.
Therapeutic Power: Through play, therapists can help children learn more adaptive behaviours when there are emotional or social skills deficits.
Communication Tool: The toys and games are their words, and play is their language. It allows them to communicate without the pressures of adult-like conversation.
-
Emotional Development: Helps children express and process their feelings.
Behavioural Change: Encourages the development of decision-making and responsibility for behaviours.
Resilience Building: Strengthens coping mechanisms and adaptive skills.

Creative counselling for Adolescents
(ages 12 to 18)
-
Eclectic Approach: Creative counsellors do not adhere to a single therapeutic model. Instead, they draw from a wide range of approaches, including Integrative, Person-Centred and Psychodynamic. This flexibility allows them to tailor the therapy to each client’s unique needs.
Process Over Perfection: Contrary to common misconceptions, clients do not need to be creatively skilled. The focus is on the process of creation, not the final product.
Subconscious Healing: Creative approaches work at a subconscious level, making them effective even when clients are not consciously aware of the problem. Whether it’s painting, moulding clay or using figurines in a sand tray, the therapeutic impact lies in the act of creation.
-
Enhanced Communication: For those who struggle to express themselves verbally, creative activities provide an alternative channel for communication.
Deeper Exploration: Clients can delve into issues that may be hard to put into words. Whether it’s anger, grief, or complex emotions, creative therapy allows exploration beyond the surface.
Holistic Healing: By integrating creative processes, clients engage their minds, bodies, and emotions. This holistic approach promotes healing on multiple levels.
