Children

We specialise in working with children who are neurodiverse (with or without diagnosis), require early intervention support and evidence building, have behavioural difficulties and with children who have experienced early childhood trauma.

Our sessions provide a safe space for children to fully be themselves and we utilise therapeutic play and creative art techniques, centred around the child. This enables us to approach children from a developmental perspective, understanding that they are not miniature adults and enabling us to support them with their natural medium of communication, play. Children express themselves more fully when engaging in spontaneous play, they play out their experiences and feelings, it enables us to communicate at their level, to help them grow and heal in a way which is innate to them.

 Sessions can help support:

• Capacity building

• Social, emotional and behavioural challenges

• Aggression

• Anxiety, fear, anger, sadness, shyness

• Developing & improving social skills

• Trauma, including children under temporary or guardianship orders or requiring intensive support

• Problems at school

• Overcome challenges

• Transitions

• Self-esteem and wellbeing

• Understanding the world around them

• Family changes

• Process stressful or traumatic experiences

• Improve problem solving skills

• Selective mutism

• Grief and loss

• and more

Parents & caregivers are offered consultation sessions alongside the child's journey to help support their child's development. By enhancing parent/caregivers' awareness of how to support their child effectively, we contribute to the improved wellbeing of the entire family.
