Play Therapy
Uses a variety of play and creative arts techniques (the Play Therapy Tool-Kit) to alleviate chronic, mild and moderate psychological and emotional conditions in children that are causing behavioural problems and/or are preventing children from realising their potential.
The Play Therapist works in an integrative way using a wide range of play and creative arts techniques, mostly responding to the child's wishes. This distinguishes the Play Therapist from more specialised therapists (Art, Music, Drama etc.).

This is a relational integrative approach, prioritising relationships using a range of theories such as Solution Focused Therapy, Gestalt Therapy and Compassion Focused Therapy.

Therapeutic Life Story Work
Life story work is an innovative and exciting way for children, parents, carers and others to look at the child's history through a therapeutic lens. This is offered to children looked after.
Person-centred counselling
Is a humanistic approach that deals with the ways in which individuals perceive themselves consciously, rather than how a counsellor can interpret their unconscious thoughts or ideas.
Play-based interventions with Theraplay techniques
Theraplay is a dyadic child and family therapy that has been recognised by the Association of Play Therapy as one of seven seminal psychotherapies for children.
Developed over 50 years ago, and practised around the world, Theraplay was developed for any professional working to support healthy child/caregiver attachment.
Strong attachment between the child and the important adults in their life has long been believed to be the basis of lifelong good mental health as well as the mainstay of resilience in the face of adversity. Modern brain research and the field of neuroscience have shown that attachment is the way in which children come to understand, trust and thrive in their world.

Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT)
Is an alternative treatment for physical pain and emotional distress. It's also referred to as tapping.
Mindfulness
Is the ability to be fully present, aware of where we are and what we’re doing, and not overly reactive or overwhelmed by what’s happening around us.
CBT-based work
CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) is based on the concept that thoughts, feelings, physical sensations and actions are interconnected, and that negative thoughts and feelings can trap people in a vicious cycle.
CBT aims to help people deal with overwhelming problems in a more positive way by breaking them down into smaller parts.

Thrive
Supports the emotional growth of students. The online assessment identifies areas of developmental need and offers ideas and strategies to support emotional growth, promoting more settled and emotionally appropriate behaviour.
Embodied Yoga
Is a mindfulness-based and body awareness practice through hatha-style yoga.
Postures and breathing are used to explore and develop the body as a comfortable place to live in, acknowledging the potential traumatic life events of students.
Practicing yoga helps us to develop positive, transferable qualities such as patience, kindness, tolerance of self and others, and the ability to let go. Embodied yoga can be a novel approach including ideas that students bring to the session though it is also aligned with traditional hatha yoga’s emphasis on developing a yoga practice. Embodied yoga can be emotionally intense as it’s a powerful tool for looking at personal patterns and supporting change.

Art therapy

(currently a trainee on placement)
A form of psychotherapy that uses visual art media as its primary mode of communication.
It involves the use of visual and tactile media as a means of self-expression.
Art therapists and art psychotherapists aim to enable clients both to discover an outlet for often complex and confusing emotions that cannot always be expressed verbally, and to foster self-awareness and growth. Practitioners have evolved distinct ways of working according to their specialism.
They work in a clinical context where aspects of health, ill health, difficulties and impairments are a great part of what the client brings to the art therapy sessions. In this context and as registered health professionals, art therapists and art psychotherapists are expected to exercise clinical judgement as a means of practising safely and effectively.
