Welcome to FamilyTimeTherapy, 

Play Therapy can help children and young people an opportunity to express and explore challenging feelings and experiences with the supporting ear of another. Play therapy supports self-expression, communication and feelings of spontaneity. It can help children to safely explore their emotional world, nurture relationships, develop new coping strategies and feel more confident. Play therapy is the only therapy that facilitates and incorporates all elements of emotional and cognitive regulation; movement, voice, arts and drama; lead by the child, facilitated by the space.  

Filial Therapy is a family based intervention and supports the relationship between parents and their children.   It moves away from attaching significance to the individual and emphasises instead the importance of  family dynamics.  Filial therapy helps families resolve difficulties through empowerment and supports them in learning new skills to help navigate relationship challenges.

Play and Filial therapy can help children and parents to make sense of their inner world, explore flexible coping strategies and gain new feelings of autonomy and relaxation.
