Between ages six and nine, something subtle but powerful begins to shift.
Emotions grow stronger. Friendships feel deeper. Reactions get bigger.
It’s not attitude — it’s adrenarche, the brain and body’s quiet rehearsal for puberty.

Children at this stage are learning to ride emotional waves that feel new and intense, without yet having the brain maturity to manage them smoothly.
They need calm guidance, not correction.
Understanding, not shame.

Dr. Kate's dictionary definition of Play Therapy!

Because sometimes the most powerful advocacy is simply stating the facts: what it is, who delivers it, and what the evidence shows

Effect sizes: 0.47-0.80. That's not opinion...that's data

There is no one path to success.

I left school in Lower 6th, very few qualifications. Went to SERC (further education college) and studied there for three years. Got some jobs. Went back to college at 23 to study Nursery Nursing (NNEB) then worked for a few more years.
Then went back to Uni in my late 30’s to study for my Bachelor’s degree in Early Years, then a post grad. The went to study Counselling At Queens, then to start my Post grad in Play therapy, then to complete my MA in Psychotherapy in my 40’s.

So to my primary school principal who told my parents ‘she’ll never amount to much if she doesn’t know her times tables’, up yours. I’ve a BA, an MA and a bunch of post grads. Running my own business AND…I still don’t know my tables 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Always brings a tear to my eyes.
