Play Therapy
A safe, creative space for children to process difficult feelings
Play therapy gives children the opportunity to express feelings and experiences that may be hard to put into words.
Huw is a qualified play therapist and is listed on the Register of Play and Creative Arts Therapists. His therapeutic work can involve creative approaches such as sand tray, stories, drama and art.
Play therapy may support children experiencing:
- Anxiety
- Low confidence

Huw’s background in SEN and dyslexia means he is especially sensitive to the way learning difficulties can contribute to emotional challenges.
