Helping children express big feelings through play!
Welcome to Play Therapy Works, based in Blenheim, New Zealand. I specialise in play therapy and play-based counselling for children aged 12 and under, helping them navigate their world and express themselves. I also offer parent coaching and support groups to empower families. Join us in fostering healthy attachment and well-being for your child.
Child Counselling Service
At Play Therapy Works, I offer play therapy and play based counselling designed to support children's emotional growth and family well-being. Play therapy is gentle, effective, and tailored to the unique needs of each child and family in Blenheim.
Individual play therapy
My core offering, individual play therapy provides a safe and supportive space for children aged 12 and under to explore feelings, process experiences, and develop coping skills through the natural language of play.
Parent coaching & support
Empowering parents is key to a child's success. I offer personalized coaching and facilitate parent groups to provide strategies, insights, and a supportive community for navigating parenting challenges.
Holistic child development
I focus on the whole child, addressing emotional, social, and behavioural aspects. Play-based interventions foster self-awareness, communication, and healthy emotional regulation in young people.
Creating safe environments
I believe in the power of a secure environment. My practice provides a judgment-free zone where children can feel safe to explore, heal, and grow at their own pace.
"Play Therapy Works has been a game-changer for our family. Our child's confidence has blossomed, and we feel so much more equipped as parents. Truly wonderful support right here in Blenheim!"
