Play Therapy uses Creative Arts in a space free from interpretation or judgement. Difficult emotions can be expressed symbolically to promote self-understanding. Play Therapy is particularly effective to;
- Encourage the telling of their story
- Support the process of bereavement and grief
- Explore nightmares or disturbed sleep patterns
- Help those who are at risk of exclusion or have been excluded from school. Play Therapy provides a child centred approach to give opportunity for exploration of hopes, fears and difficulties over past and present feelings and to develop optimism for the future. Particularly effective to;
- Increase confidence and self esteem by enabling the recognition of personal strengths and attributes
- Challenge difficulties by self exploration of unconscious thought and feeling
- Find acceptance within the self during the growth of therapeutic alliance
- Connect with the enjoyment of playing which increases creativity and fosters imagination

I hope everyone’s gardens survived the storm. Our wisteria blew down but the tent in the garden remains 🙌🏻💪🍃 and with thanks to Ss Window cleaning And Fencing so does our fence!

Stuart did a fab job. Was super friendly, efficient and calm through the challenge of making the area private and confidential for the children and families that visit. I highly recommend giving them a call if you are looking to fix broken panels this morning ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A nice little poem for your little ones when they wake tomorrow. Author unknown.

Phillip came to me today,
and said it was time to go.
I looked at him and smiled,
as i whispered that "I know"

I then turned and looked behind me,
and seen I was asleep.
All my Family were around me,
and I could hear them weep.

I gently touched each shoulder,
with Phillip by my side.
Then I turned away and walked,
with My Angel guide.

Phillip held my hand,
as he lead the way,
to a world where King's and Queens,
are Monarch's every day.

I was given a crown to wear
or a Halo known by some.
The difference is up here,
they are worn by everyone.

I felt a sense of peace,
my reign had seen its end.
70 years I had served my Country,
as the peoples friend.

Thank you for the years,
for all your time and love.
Now I am one of two again,
in our Palace up above.
