Understanding and responding sensitively to your child’s BIG emotions and behaviours can feel overwhelming and exhausting. It’s hard not to feel triggered, slipping into fight, flight, or freeze, or defaulting to unhelpful parenting patterns. The ripple effect on the entire family and beyond - sibling dynamics, peer relationships, school - can feel so disheartening. What you truly want is to support your child’s growth, development, and wellbeing. Most importantly, you long for a stronger, more secure, and trusting relationship with your child, so they feel safe turning to you for the big things.
Filial Therapy is a specialised relationship-focused therapeutic program for parents/ caregivers and their children, in which you learn some of the main tools from the play therapist's toolbox. I'll guide you to conduct a special and transformative type of play with your child that will help you grow in confidence in your parenting skills and foster healing.
Play is a therapeutic and powerful tool for healing and creating the changes you long to see in your child and family. If you're ready to explore a more conscious, compassionate parenting approach and open to trying something new, I would love to support you on this journey. Reach out to learn more and get started.
