Play therapy is a form of child counselling and psychotherapy that allows children to use the world of “it’s just pretend” to face difficulties that would otherwise be too overwhelming for them. For example, a child who is struggling to come to terms with their parents separating may play out the various roles of the people involved and in the process develop more understanding of what is happening. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60bc20ea94a5925c3409524a/1623025370093-GQHXZHG8EPBZ09A6S89I/Room_3_LR.jpg Services - Sandplay Therapy. Sandplay is a type of play based therapy that involves using figurines and other objects to create imaginative representations of the person’s experience. It is used with all ages as a way of expressing what is happening on the inside. It is a way of bypassing what we are consciously aware of and becoming more aware of our underlying hopes, dreams and fears. It is very powerful and, for older people – teens and adults – will often provoke a sense of surprise as we recognise underlying concerns and needs, communicated via symbols, similar to how art speaks to us. Children are more likely to take it in their stride, being still more directly connected with imaginative forms of relating through play. Sometimes a person will know what they have expressed through the tray they have created while often they just feel a subtle sense of relief, of having relieved themselves of a burden. The impact of completing a sandtray continues to have an impact long after they have left the room as the process tends to kickstart internal changes. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60bc20ea94a5925c3409524a/1623025543444-SDG00O7W0F9V6S6CQ9BC/Drawing_LR.jpg Services - Interactive Drawing Therapy. This is a specific kind of drawing therapy developed in New Zealand. It aims to bring together images (imagination) and words (reflective understanding) to help a person develop greater self-understanding and provide emotional relief. In common with sandplay therapy, the aim is to help the person access their own healing ability through the use of metaphor and the imagination.  https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60bc20ea94a5925c3409524a/1623026090227-GIDERE3ELME37GEIZZIG/Talking_LR+copy.jpg Services - Talking Therapy. I use a psychodynamic therapeutic approach with some of the strategies of cognitive behavioural therapy. What this means is that I work with people to look at recurring patterns in their lives and to understand how this impacts on their quality of life. Metaphors will often be useful as a way of deepening self-understanding. Practical strategies such as looking at specific thoughts and behaviours and working at changing these can also help to make active changes. https://www.suebradshawtherapy.co.nz/contact daily 0.75 2025-04-13 https://www.suebradshawtherapy.co.nz/privacy-policy daily 0.75 2025-04-06
