Everybody experiences difficulties at some point in their lives and at times may need a little extra support to overcome these difficulties. For the most part, adults use words to make sense of and overcome the difficulties that that they are experiencing, but for children and adolescents this may not be the most suitable approach. They may not have the emotional language or cognitive ability to talk about the difficulties that they are experiencing in their lives, and therefore may appear to be sad, angry, disruptive, rebellious, or unable to cope.

Play Therapy and Adolescent Counselling enables the child or adolescent to express themselves through the use of toys, symbols and other creative mediums such as art, clay and story writing. This type of approach can be beneficial for children or adolescent who find it difficult to adjust to life changes such as parental separation or the birth of a new sibling, or more traumatic experiences such as a period hospitalisation due to an accident, death of a parent or abusive experiences.

Parenting support is also available.
