In this space, all play is okay! 🤸‍♂️🫧

Big play, quiet play, silly play, serious play, the kind that looks messy and the kind that looks careful. It all means something 🦋

Children tell their stories through play 📚 Through the games they choose, the characters they create, the things they build and knock down, they show us what is going on inside.

There is no rush here and no timetable for healing. Some days we want to talk, some days we want to play, and some days we just need to be. In this space, all of that is perfectly okay 🩷

When everything feels tangled or overwhelming, it can help to have someone sit with you in it. Someone who isn’t rushing for answers or trying to fix things, just helping to make sense of what’s there.

Support can look like slowing things down.
Like knowing you don’t have to carry it all by yourself.
Like sorting through one piece at a time 🧩

Sometimes the first step is simply not being alone with it 💕

All emotions have a place here 🫶🏻

Joy, excitement, hope.
And also fear, sadness, anger, confusion and grief.

So often we learn to welcome the “good” feelings and push the rest aside 🙅🏼‍♀️
But our harder emotions are part of being human.

You do not need to rush yourself through your feelings.

In this space, every emotion is allowed. Whatever you’re bringing with you today, it belongs here ☀️🌧️⚡️🌈

The holidays can bring connection, joy and rest… and it can also bring grief, loneliness, family tension, financial strain, and a lot of expectations.

If this time of year feels heavy, you’re not doing it wrong.
If you’re tired, overwhelmed, or not feeling festive at all, that makes sense.

You are allowed to move at your own pace.
You are allowed to say no.
You are allowed to do what feels manageable rather than what looks perfect.

Kindness this season includes kindness towards yourself. That might look like resting, setting boundaries, simplifying plans, or just getting through the day as best you can.

Wherever you find yourself this festive season, you’re not alone. Sending care to you 🩷

Hello lovely Knysna 💕

This little practice has been a dream brewing for years and now it has its own cosy corner in our beautiful town. Through play therapy, children work through tricky feelings using play, imagination and a whole lot of heart.

If your child could use support or you’re just curious about what happens in a play therapy session, pop me a message 💌
