18.01.2022 May seem like a pure mess but in fact it was an awesome play therapy session with a little one today. We played hard we both needed a lot of water after that one! my job

17.01.2022 Im really trying to do a little more exercise at the moment, but this weather is not very motivating for me, however while still working from home I am wearing the right gear just to get up and go for a walk, come on Anna just do it!

17.01.2022 Things around Victoria are still looking a bit grim, people are feeling unsure, a bit scared even a bit stunned and as of Monday were required to wear masks/ face coverings outside the home. Im still around, Im trying to bring some calm to the heightened emotions, I am still doing face to face sessions and I am still offering zoom sessions too. Give me a buzz or email if youre needing an appointment. Take care, stay safe and be gentle on yourself. Anna

15.01.2022 Social and emotional development can be supported by engaging with the kinetic sand as children may find it calming and relaxing. Kinetic sand provides a range of sensory experiences for children and even for some adults!

14.01.2022 Start the conversation....R U Ok?

13.01.2022 A session with a little poppet today telling me how he gets confused at school and this is how his brain is, little poppet couldn’t explain what was going on til they found the blocks #playtherapyworks #socialworker #therapy #processing #processingemotions #lovemyjob

12.01.2022 Did you know that it is estimated that 1 in 7 Australian children experience mental health issues and almost half of serious mental health issues in adults start before the age of 14. Thats a lot of weight on childrens shoulders, lets do something about it together.

12.01.2022 Children learn to understand the world and their place in it through play. Its where they are free to act out their inner feelings and their deepest emotions. Toys can act as symbols and take on greater meanings-if you know what to look for. I am currently studying to be a play therapist and this week Im participating in more workshops, I am taking this week off so I can continue my further education and Im so excited by this!! I play therapy

However I have found a little website that does some science experiments for kids, Ive used this site before (a few years ago now) and the kids loved it. Maybe it could be useful in your house to! https://www.sciencekids.co.nz/experiments.html

06.01.2022 I'm finding joy hearing the birds sing after the rain. What's your joy?

06.01.2022 Children learn in play, but more importantly in play, children learn to learn.

04.01.2022 When we realise we cant change others but we can change ourselves its like a big sigh of relief. Changing our mindset is the most challenging but rewarding thing we can do. Change can be scary but change is good.

03.01.2022 Self care is ALWAYS important! Enjoy the warmth of the sunshine, stay safe and stay well.

01.01.2022 Here's a little podcast about children's mental health during covid-19 it only goes for 28 mins. https://emergingminds.com.au//childrens-mental-health-dur/

01.01.2022 People who exercise regularly tend to do so because it gives them an enormous sense of well-being. They feel more energetic throughout the day, sleep better at night, have sharper memories, and feel more relaxed, positive and its also powerful medicine for many common mental health challenges. Regular exercise can have a profoundly positive impact on depression & anxiety. It also relieves stress and boosts your overall mood. Research indicates that modest amounts of exercise can make a difference. No matter your age or fitness level, you can learn to use exercise as a tool to improve your wellbeing. So what will you do today?
