How We Play

Children and young people face many challenges as they grow, and at times these difficulties can feel overwhelming for both them and their families. Every behaviour has meaning, and often what looks like “acting out” or withdrawal is really a child’s way of showing us that something deeper is going on.

Play therapy provides a safe and supportive space for children to explore their feelings, build coping skills, and find healthier ways to manage life’s ups and downs.

At Bright Seeds Play Therapy, we can support children with many concerns, including but not limited to:

Anxiety (general, separation, medical), depression, low self-esteem, emotional regulation, grief and loss.
