The Healing Stars Play Therapy

The Healing Stars Play Therapy Based in Limassol (Cyprus) I offer Play Therapy and Parenting Support. My mission is to “Support children and families to have emotionally healthy lives.”

Hello, my name is Belina Louvrou, I am from Corfu, Greece, and I am a Registered Psychologist and Child and Adolescent Psychotherapist specializing in Play Therapy. For the last 7,5 years I’ve been working in London, UK with children and families offering play therapy and parenting support. My husband is from Cyprus and so, when in 2018 we felt that it was time for a change we decided to move to L

imassol. That was the beginning of a new exciting chapter in my life as I was then able to set up my private practice and offer my services to children and their families in Limassol. Moving to a new country and setting up my private practice was scary and exciting at the same time but it was one of my biggest dreams to create a space where families and children can feel safe and are being supported. The idea of The Healing Stars was born from this dream and I am excited that I’ll be able to use my knowledge and experience from UK, helping children and their families in Limassol. The aim is to provide a holistic approach and the mission is to “Support children and families to have emotionally healthy lives”. I am a Registered Member of the Cypriot Association of Psychologists (registration number 924) and the BACP (the British Association Of Counselling and Psychotherapy) MBACP and I am on the BACP Register of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (registration number 238718) accredited by the Professional Standards Authority [PSA] for Health and Social Care, an independent body accountable to UK Government. The BACP Register of Counsellors & Psychotherapists is a public record of therapists who have met BACP's standards for registration. These standards cover training, supervision, continuing professional development and a commitment to BACP's Ethical Framework. I am clinically supervised by an experienced and qualified supervisor and undergo annual CPD training to deepen my knowledge and ensure the safety and effectiveness of my practice. In 2021, I qualified as Clinical Supervisor from Open College Uk (OCN) Credit4Learning and now I am offering as well Clinical Supervision both in person and online to Play Therapists, Counsellors, Psychotherapists and Psychologists.

⭐Being a nurturing parent doesn't mean you are always regulated. Children don't need that and it is not healthy to strive for unrealistic inauthentic perfect parenting. You will shout and you will lose it from time to time. You will make mistakes.
⭐Children need to feel safe enough in the relationship to know that it can withstand little ruptures and bumps in the road but that you will always find a way to make it back to your connection with them. You will carve out the time to imagine how they felt when you lost it.
⭐They need to head an apology free from blame that feels like taking genuine responsibility. They need you to make actionable steps to change and nurture yourself in the process. They just need to feel loved in the messy imperfect bond between parent and child. Rupture is inevitable and necessary for deepening this bond over time. The repair is where the magic lies. It is a chance to deepen the relationship and bring it to new depths and new strengths.
⭐Take the pressure off. Enjoy them and know that rupture and repair is necessary for a secure bond. It is human and that is what they need to see.

💭Play Therapy is the type of therapy that has been around in psychiatry since 1930s and may have been around for hundreds or even thousands of years before.

💭Academics in the 1930s felt the value of play therapy wad that "the child revealed far more of himself when talking about things he liked to do, his favorite toys, his pets, his friends etc., than when he was face to face with a psychiatrist who questioned him first about his troubles" (Gitelson, 1938).

💭 Play therapy is a type of therapy where therapists allow clients (who are often but not always children) to play during sessions, rather than simply sitting with clients and asking them questions about their problems.
🌟Play therapy can be nondirective, as in the case of allowing a client to play with sand to relieve stress, or directive, as in the case of having a client tell a story about a family using puppets to learn more about the client’s family dynamics.
🌟Play therapy can also be adapted to the client, as very young children play in different ways than adolescents and adults. The idea of play therapy is to let clients settle into a more comfortable situation where they are more willing to express themselves than they would be in a traditional therapy session.

With the summer break on the way, we have uploaded two files to help you get through the holidays!

First we have our guide on keeping children safe in the sun. Please take a look through as it’s packed with tips to help you make sure your children stay safe in hot weather. Remember, the sun can be just as strong on children whether you are in the UK or in the Mediterranean!

Secondly, to keep children entertained when on flights, caravaning, or just bored at home, we have uploaded a full and free colouring book, separated into individual pictures to print at home.

Visit our Resources section on our website : www.kairosfamilysupport.com
where you can find both these documents and more !

Enjoy the summer safely.

Our Story

Welcome to The Healing Stars page!!

My name is Belina Louvrou, I am from Corfu, Greece, and I am a Registered Psychologist and Child and Adolescent Psychotherapist specializing in Play Therapy.

For the last 7 years I’ve been working in London, UK with children and families offering play therapy and parenting support. My husband is from Cyprus and so, when in 2018 we felt that it was time for a change we decided to move to Limassol at the end of the year. That was the beginning of a new exciting chapter in my life as I was then able to set up my private practice and offer my services to children and their families in Limassol. Moving to a new country and setting up my private practice was scary and exciting at the same time but it was one of my biggest dreams to create a space where families and children can feel safe and are being supported.
