I’m Kinsley, I work with children from the ages of 4, using both talking & creative play based therapy. I can help if your child is suffering from anxiety, or emotional & mental health issues, attachment issues, trauma, challenging behaviours, eating issues, emotional based school avoidance & much more. I specialise in working with Autistic, ADHD & PDA Children. I offer therapeutic play therapy sessions, parent counselling sessions & parent support sessions. I help children to explore their emotions using their natural language - Play. I also use Minecraft and digital sand trays for online work. Currently only working online.
Being a parent can be challenging, it can also be lonely. As an ADHD Mother of 5 children, with Tourettes, Autism, Pathological demand avoidant profile & ADHD, I have first hand experience of the difficulties Parenting can throw at us. I offer a friendly, trusting and non judgemental space to discuss the challenges you’re facing.
Every family is different, I can help support you & your family through chaos & difficulties by tailoring support to suit your needs. I use a mixture of talking & creative therapies including sandtray, art, play & more. I offer parent support sessions using therapeutic parenting techniques helping parents to understand their child’s behaviours.

I help all children with their mental health, using a child's natural language 'play & creativity'. A child explores their issues through play, helping them heal. I can help struggling parents understand their child's behaviours & explore where they stem from. I teach parenting techniques which are attachment based, nervous system led, neuroscience informed with empathy as the foundation.

I use therapeutic play based techniques so children can process their struggles without the use of words. My favourite is the sand tray! I am integrative based so I tailor the therapy to suit each individual. Thats the beauty of integrative therapy, everyone is unique and I can draw on the techniques to suit each individual.
