thanks for this image.
Some words of wisdom to consider over Valentine's Weekend.
Relationships are key and connection before correction matters everytime. Let's try putting some of these phrases into action in our relationships with each other including our children and young people.
Loving relationships include rupture and repair ❤

Budapest what an adventure!
Walked til my feet are sore, sampled fancy food and drinks and immersed myself in cultural experiences.
I also managed to pick up a beautiful new set of nesting dolls, can't wait to bring those into the Play Therapy sessions.

I'm taking a pause this week for mid-term break. I hope you all get some quality time with your families too.
The February break is nice, with less pressure and things on the list, enjoy! In the meantime check out the great offerings I am zen and HAVEN by Clare all within the same Hightown Rd setting.
I will respond to any enquiries on my return. Thanks for your patience.

Children will use various objects and express their feelings and experiences through play.
Verbal communication is generally not the first means of communication for young children.

Take time to really notice and connect with your child through play. Short bursts of child led play are so valuable. Enjoy the little moments, park the adult driven intentions and allow yourself to laugh and have fun.

My parent workshop on 'Positive Playtimes' last year was well received and I've had a few enquiries about facilitating this again. I'm hoping to run this event again in the Springtime.

Delighted to offer my support to these young people.
Creative expression through the arts helping build confidence and friendships 🙌
The show will be fantastic! Check out Dudes & Divas Entertainment for great ideas for family fun.

Play is the language of children.
I'm ready for a playful week ahead marking

What symbols will my clients choose to communicate with this week I wonder. It might be lego, sandtray, clay, puppets, art, role-play, stories or games. I'm ready to engage and to be led by the child.
The playful creative approach is so powerful.

In the playroom children and young people are intrinsically motivated to play within the safe secure therapeutic relationship.

I came across this many years ago and the thought has always stuck with me.
And it's relevant for all age groups! Though good luck with the first three minutes in a teen's day!

It's almost impossible to maintain attuned presence at all times but if we can aim to really notice and connect in quality bursts throughout the day then the relationship flourishes.

Good luck to everyone awaiting results tomorrow!
You have done your best and that's what counts.
Remember this is one stage of school life and there are many different pathways to success. Grades do not define you.

Well done to everyone for working so hard!

Parents/carers, hold space for your child. If they are disappointed, use the 'Name it to tame it' strategy, as in name the emotions and validate the feelings.

No such thing as 'Blue Monday' it was a marketing gimmick dreamed up by travel agents years ago.

Today I'm choosing to read from this wonderful book which just arrived in the post! 'An Invitation to Notice' written by Michelle A. Major, The Sunshine Project
I'm ready to immerse myself in learning more about regulation, resilience and rest. And that way I can enhance what I bring to my clients and their families.
