We also work alongside parents to share with them ways to better support their child and improve the parent-child relationship.

Suitable for: Children 4 to 12 years old and anyone who may prefer to express themselves through the different mediums of play (e.g. art, puppets, sandtray)

Quotes

My therapist has been extremely insightful in identifying the roots of our problem — one of it being our negative communication cycle. She also provided a safe space to talk about our emotions openly, and facilitated discussions of uncomfortable but necessary topics. From her we’ve learnt that not all problems can be solved immediately, and being able to sit with discomfort is a big step in itself. We’ve been incorporating her suggestions into our daily lives and are really thankful that we’re under her guidance!

Couple Therapy Clients

Play Therapy has been a non-threatening way to help my boy work out his issues. Pearleen has been a trusted confidante whom he could share his innermost feelings and thoughts with. He looks forward to every session and remembers each appointment even though he has difficulties remembering everything else!

Magdalene Lee, parent of child undergoing Play Therapy

I am grateful to Jonathan for holding the space for me to reflect and heal. I got to learn about who I am and my gifts. I am going to be courageous as I step back into the workforce. Thank you for accompanying me on this journey.

Care Corner Counselling Centre client

I chose Play Therapy to help my son work through his anger issues. Using play as a therapeutic tool has been very effective. My son is able to freely express himself in a language (i.e., play) comfortable to him in a safe and guided environment. I am pleased to see the positive changes in his behaviour since starting Play Therapy.
