Questions?

It’s natural to have questions when you're exploring therapy for your child. Find below a selection of questions that parents and carers often ask, and find some answers too!

If you have other questions, or would like more detail on the ones below, see all FAQs – for adults & children.

How will I know if play therapy is working, and my child is "getting better?"

The process of any therapy, including play therapy, is not linear and at times things can appear to be “getting worse” before they begin to get better. However, there is an observable change process and across a period of 12–20 sessions it is possible to observe progress and change.

What can my child expect from a typical play therapy session?

A typical play therapy session varies with the uniqueness and life experiences of the child. We will meet weekly at the same time and place, at my private practice playroom - The Sunflower House. There will be toys, sensory objects, open-ended games and sand and water trays to name just a few. Your child will be able to choose what they wish to play with but if this feels too overwhelming at first, we can decide on a game to play together which feels safer and less daunting.

Are my child’s play therapy sessions confidential?

As a parent, it is a big and brave step to trust a play therapist with our child’s most intimate thoughts and feelings. The content of your child’s therapy sessions will remain private — only in specific and limited circumstances would anything be shared.
