TESTIMONIALS

"As a parent I felt lost about how to navigate our child through a difficult and traumatic experience. I was unsure how best we could parent him well so he could be be his most confident, peaceful and happy self. It was so lovely that he looked forward to visiting Gillian and could play happily and trustingly. It was evident she appreciated him and got to know and understand him well. I believe our son loved the chance to express himself and be heard which itself spoke to his needs. Gillian's detailed and thorough assessment and interpretation of his play was very insightful. She helped us as parents to be better equipped with more understanding of our child's thinking and tools to help guide and parent him. Recently our son experienced a difficult situation and I'm so proud of how he handled it, I think that this is largely due to greater confidence and security brought about by his time with Gillian and our implementation of her recommendations." Parent of play therapy client

"The sessions provided my daughter with the tools she needed to recognise her feelings and express them in a healthy way. Her impulse control improved and we were shown ways of helping her feel emotionally fulfilled (she was feeling quite jealous of her younger sibling- this improved instantly and hasn't been a problem since)." Parent of play therapy client

"Connor absolutely loved all his play therapy sessions with Gillian. He looked forward to every single one of them and cried when we told him that his sessions had ended. We as parents learnt a lot about Connor's feelings and any concerns Gillian had in our feed back session. I can highly recommend Gillian as she has helped my family out a lot." Lee-Ann Laufs, mom of Connor, aged 6

"Gillian`s patient, purposeful and gentle help with my son, achieving a remarkable transformation in a short period of time. Her wise and gentle ways enabled my son to understand his issues and gave him the tools to manage his behaviour and issues in a much more healthy and peaceful way. Gillian was also supportive and caring of my needs as a parent and inciteful in her analysis and feedback. I would recommend her services to any family going through difficulties."
