1)04.10.2022 Were you happy with the service provided? “Yes” Why?” I was very concerned about an incident that happened to my daughter at school. Louise gave us the tools and resources to talk about it with my daughter, to help process and move on. I calmed down, so did my partner after seeing our daughter’s progress after therapy sessions & our conversations”. Would you recommend this service to others:” Yes because it provided us with the tools & resources needed to help our daughter process and move on from an incident at school”.

What is Play Therapy
The sessions with your child will run for approximately 30-45 minutes per session depending on the age of your child. There may be times that your child’s session is longer or shorter than this time. The session will always be conducted in a very professional manner although the session may at times appear unstructured and social. Read more about Play therapy here
