Mandala Play Therapy at Mandala Therapies

Child centred, humanistic, clinical child play therapists require many skills and attributes to engage therapeutically with children aged 2.5 years onwards. The playroom can be a very kinetic and physical space. Therapists also require endurance, strength, flexibility and agility to support their clients via play. Yes, Daneel engages in professional development, clinical supervision and further study - but she also hits the gym to support her play therapy practice.

FOSTER CARE WEEK

This week is all about celebrating all the foster carers in our community! We express our gratitude for the way foster carers provide love, nurture and support for some of Victoria’s most vulnerable children. Please know what you do is so important!

The week is also about promoting the need for more foster carers in our region. We are supporting this week, using their coffee cups to increase the visibility for that need within our community. You can find out more about becoming a foster carer by attending an online information session. Register through the Mackillop website at www.mackillop.org.au

Yes our sensory garden is also edible.
Our outdoor therapeutic nature space is very popular with children of all ages - our sensory garden engages curiosity and discovery through engaging sight, smell, touch, sound, and taste.
