23.01.2022 Finding Balance Occupational Therapy and Play Therapy has moved to Unit 8/ 55 Hampden Road Nedlands. I love the new space and the new facilities, but most of all, I love my Play Therapy room. Children play.... Adults talk... Please dont expect a child to talk about their emotions and then change their behaviour. Let the play therapy process help your child understand, develop an inner confidence and competence and learn new ways of behaving when they are struggling.
22.01.2022 For all my families who LOVE animals as much as I do ... this will make your children smile inside and out.
22.01.2022 Thank You for this reminder! @RobynGobbel
21.01.2022 At Finding Balance, were passionate about Play Therapy. Play Therapy is a well researched specialised counselling technique for children aged between 2 and 10. Play Therapy is not like regular play. Toys, arts and crafts are carefully selected and presented in a play room. It is here, with the help of a trusted therapist, children can express their inner world without words. If a child is able to play out their experiences and feelings, they are able to make sense of what... is troubling them and work towards a place of healing and resolution. Go to https://findingbalancetherapy.com.au/playtherapy/ to find out more on Play Therapy and the services we offer.

20.01.2022 Play Therapy is real therapy. Play is the medium through which the therapy occurs. I hear... Oh youre a play therapist! Wow, my child needs to be taught how to play. Child Centered Play Therapy (CCPT) is NOT teaching children how to play. CCPT is a specialised, non directive counselling/ psychotherapy technique for children aged 2-10 with mental, emotional, social and behavioural concerns. CCPT is widely considered to have been practiced the longest and has the strongest evi...dence based. It is used extensively around the world to address childhood psychosocial issues. Playing to children, is like talking is, to adults. CCPT uses play ( the childs natural language) to develop a therapeutic relationship between the child and the therapist. It is this relationship, that supports the childs freedom of expression, leading to the revelation of the troubling issues and inner growth towards resolution and healing. www.findingbalancetherapy.com.au/playtherapy #playtherapy#childrensmentalheath#playtherapyweek See more

17.01.2022 https://youtu.be/reJpo-GaopM Andrew obviously has a fantastic expressive communication ability, beyond his years. lol However, the reality is that young children are unable to express their emotions. Play therapy allows children to express themselves in an age appropriate manner. "Play Therapy is to a child what talking is to an adult." Great clip, enjoy.

14.01.2022 A reasonable, respectful and caring message to parents and children
13.01.2022 There are so many reasons as to why a child has a "meltdown". Getting help to tease out the reason is so important. We often see meltdowns as "spoilt behaviour" and then punish our children. There may be a number of reasons as to why a child has a meltdown that need to be explored further, which leads to a better outcome. #parenting#playtherapy#selfregulation
12.01.2022 Why do children say " I dont know"..when we ask them why they just reacted or behaved in an unexpected way... Commonly they dont actually know and developmentally they cant say it in words #playtherapy#findingbalancetherapy. #childtherapist

09.01.2022 The child standing before the therapist in the playroom is not a problem to be analysed, but a whole person to be related to, and understood. #GaryLandreth#ChildCentredPlayTherapy# Play Therapy is to a child, what talking is to an adult. Here is a quick explanation of Play Therapy and how it helps.
