The Play Therapy Room

Supporting Healing and Growth

 
Welcome to The Play Therapy Room!

Please come in and start exploring...
One of the greatest obstacles I face when explaining to people what it is that I do, is that everyone assumes that as a Play Therapist I simply spend my days playing! I guess that is true however, Play Therapy is more than just play, it is powerful and purposeful.
 
How often does a child ask, "Please can we have a chat?" Ever? But, how often does a child say, "Please come play with me"? Often! Play is the natural medium through which children learn, communicate and explore their worlds. Play is not only fun, it is essential for a child's physical, emotional and social development.
 
I hope that as you explore The Play Therapy Room you will find corners of interest, nooks of support, and crannies of creative inspiration!    
 
Enjoy!
