Play Therapy

Humanistic Play Therapy (Child Directed)

A child-directed counselling approach, using the power of play, therapeutic skills and the therapeutic relationship, to scaffold positive change. Often beneficial for children who require support with complex emotions, processing traumatic past experiences, demonstrating difficulties with anxiety or emotional dysregulation.

Additionally, children experiencing behavioural challenges presented through developmental delays or neurodevelopmental disorders such as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) or Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) may find play therapy helpful.

Integrative Play Therapy

In Integrative Play Therapy, the therapist incorporates a combination of play therapy modalities to best support the child holistically. Often children may require a combination of directive and non-directive therapeutic supports to scaffold their development.

The therapeutic supports are always individualised to meet each child's interests, personal ambitions and needs. Supports are provided through a neuro-affirming, strengths and evidence-based lens to ensure best practice.

This is the most common form of therapy that Rachel provides at BMDT.
