Children's Therapies has new classes.

I love working with children but realise there are times when it is better to refer parents to other therapies.  Most kids respond extremely well to hypnotherapy but in some cases with toddlers it's better to go with a place they can express themselves without talking.  Please see below for details on the new classes this wonderful clinic can provide.



New Drama Therapy and Play Therapy,  Speech Therapy Apps, and Yoga for Kids

Drama Therapy and Play Therapy

A few months ago we started offering drama and play therapy services in addition to our child psychology service.   Talking therapies are not always suitable for very young children, as they haven't yet developed the language to articulate their thoughts and feelings.  Children express themselves naturally and most effectively through play.  In these creative therapy sessions, they use figures or puppets to represent real people or feelings, and the sand tray and other art and play materials to act out situations or things that have happened to them.

These therapies are extremely helpful for both adults and children of all ages who have undergone any kind of traumatic event including bereavement or parental separation, and also for children who struggle with forming relationships, including those on the autistic spectrum.  You can read a case study and find out more about dramatherapy and play therapy on our website.
