School holidays are for Beach walks, pebble collecting, mandala art and some creative outdoor time with my own children.

We’ve explored all our senses today and benefitted from some gentle mindful grounding in the outdoors.

The sound of the waves 🌊
The satisfying sight of colourful beach huts against the clear sky ☀️
The smell of the sea air
The taste of the salty air on our lips
And exploration through touch of the sand, the textured shells, the smooth pebbles 🐚

The beach is where I go for my own self care and mindful moments.

Where is your happy place for self care?

Jumping on an AI trend and thinking about my inner child. Being mindful of how we speak to ourselves, our inner child and the vulnerable parts of ourselves is so important. Our inner maidens or squires to think of archetypes. They are youthful, perhaps a little naive, hopeful, creative and full of potential.

What is the default voice towards the inner child? …. Criticism? Nurture? Praise? Unconditional Love?

Is the voice completely accepting of the whole of us? With all our quirks, idiosyncrasies, strengths. Our life journey is nuanced and our relationships complex.

I sometimes wonder why we can be so critical of ourselves, holding ourselves to impossible standards and then treat others with absolute compassion and understanding.

Part of any healing journey is to nurture our inner child. To see this visually feels so powerful. ❤️

From another perspective I reflect on the children who come into my play room. With their vulnerabilities, strengths and potential. I hold endless hope for their potential and this is just one of the reasons I love my job.

Hello all, it’s been a while and so time to introduce myself again! Here I am in my happy place at the beach. I have loved exploring Scottish beaches since we moved but it’s time I also did some work and got to meet some more amazing children and families. I’m based in Elgin, Moray. I am a play therapist and trainee creative clinical supervisor. I love to get to know new people, I love learning about their strengths, experiences, interests and quirks, everything that makes them uniquely wonderful. I have previously worked as a social worker as well as with Deaf children using British Sigh Language.

I love my job, I love the opportunities it has given me and the people it has brought into my world. If you want to know more about play therapy or clinical supervision then please get in touch. I can offer supervision to play therapists, social workers, teachers and other school staff, other professions if you feel you can benefit from creative exploration of your work or caseload.

As I prepare to move to Scotland in the next few days I’ve been reflecting on how much I value the supportive community of Play Therapists I’m grateful to be part of. This field is full of compassionate, creative, empathetic, and all round beautiful humans.

As I am saying my goodbyes in Wiltshire I met up with Kelly Boswell last week. She is an awesome therapist and clinical supervisor based in Salisbury. Kelly has been a huge support since I moved to Wiltshire three years ago. So if you have found my page because of a recommendation for Play Therapy in the Wiltshire area get in contact with .

Looking ahead, I’m looking forward to building new connections in Moray, Scotland, where I’ll be offering play therapy as well as creative clinical supervision. If you’re in the area and working in the world of therapeutic support, I’d love to connect and build up my Scottish network.

Thank you to my play therapy community, I’m incredibly grateful that I get to do this job.
