1-2-1 Play Therapy Sessions
Creative Calm can offer 1-2-1 play therapy sessions for children aged 4-12. Sessions typically last 40 minutes, and take place weekly and are arranged in blocks of 6. I offer a free 30 minute consultation online or over the phone with the parent or carer following an enquiry/referral to discuss the presenting needs and how play therapy could help.
‘This was an important reminder of how important managing your own regulation is in managing your child’s dysregulation’ and to include God in all the mess of family life does make a difference and gives you the strength to carry on.’
Creative Calm: Spring
A 6-week online evening course as we help you to explore creative, faith-based self-care practices to soothe your nervous system, develop new regulation skills, and find a moment of peace, in community with others on the same journey. Take this time for yourself to recharge your batteries.
Course starts Thursday January 8th 2026 from 8.00-9:15pm.
As play therapists we use creative techniques, rooted in the Bible and neuroscience research, to help you reset your nervous system and re-energise.
As foster and adoptive parents we know that time is limited so we provide all the resources you need in our Creative Calm box and post it to you before the course starts. This means that each week, you can just come as you are, with your box of resources all in one place.
Topics and techniques covered:
Understanding your nervous system from a neuroscience perspective,
The power of movement in regulation,
Breathing techniques that help you stay calm in a crisis,
Opportunities for spiritual connection and reflection and prayer,
Using our senses to regulate, reset and rest,
and more!
