🪴Neurodiversity awareness/ accepting identity
🪴Developmental delays

How long does Play Therapy take?
There is no set time frame. On average, a child will attend for at least 15 sessions, but some may need longer. I will always keep parents informed about where we are in the process.
What happens in the Playroom?
The playroom includes toys, art, sand, puppets, and role play materials. I work in a non-directive way — your child chooses what to play with, and I follow their lead within safe boundaries. This gives them the space to express themselves in the way that feels natural.
Where are you located?
I provide Play Therapy sessions in Soearth Projects in Kill, Co. Kildare. I take referrals from Kildare, Dublin, and the surrounding counties.
