Flourish Play Therapy and Counselling

Play is a child’s first language—and their most honest one. As a clinical social worker and certified play therapist, I see every day how play becomes a bridge to healing. Through toys, movement, art, and imagination, children communicate what they don’t yet have words for: big feelings, worries, hopes, and resilience.

Play therapy isn’t “just play.” It’s evidence-based, developmentally attuned, and deeply respectful of a child’s inner world. In the safety of relationship, play helps children regulate their nervous systems, process experiences, build confidence, and rediscover their sense of agency and joy.

This week, we celebrate the power of play as therapy—and honor children exactly where they are.
