Amidst the wild ride of parenting and the unique challenges that face children today are the therapists at Playroom Therapy.
Play therapy harnesses the inherent powers of play and draws on tried and true therapeutic approaches to offer a gentle yet effective approach to mental health and wellbeing for children.
At Playroom Therapy, children are provided with a sanctuary where they can use play to make sense of their worlds, navigate emotions, and learn how to thrive.
Embedded within the philosophy of Play Therapy is the profound recognition that children possess an innate capacity to communicate and process their innermost thoughts and feelings
through play.
It’s a therapeutic modality that acknowledges the uniqueness of childhood experiences, offering a safe haven where children aged 3 to 12 years can use play to explore, express, and make sense of their worlds.
Play therapy has the unique capacity to foster emotional wellness, promote communication and expression, enhance relationships, and harness personal strengths.
Within the therapeutic environment of the playroom walls, children have the opportunity to make sense of difficult life experiences, to grow in confidence, and to cultivate a deeper understanding of themselves, their relationships, and the world around them.
With such power, play therapy has the capacity to address a range of social, emotional and behavioural difficulties – big and small.
While holding the child in the centre, Playroom Therapy extends its healing embrace to the system around the child, offering therapeutic support, coaching, and consultancy to parents, carers, educators, and teachers.
With such an approach, Playroom Therapy works to create a holistic ecosystem of support where children and families can thrive.
From anxiety and sadness to struggles with friendships or traumatic events, Play Therapy offers a beacon of hope and healing for children navigating life’s tumultuous waters.
As Playroom Therapy expands its reach with new locations in Malvern East and Balwyn North, the mission remains steadfast: to empower children and families to connect, heal and grow the best way they know how – through play!
