“My child absolutely loved his sessions with Anna. She was very welcoming and softly spoken, which helped him feel safe and secure. I noticed a big difference in his behaviour and confidence, and I wouldn’t hesitate to return in the future. Thank you again, Anna — highly recommended.”

“I am very grateful for the positive impact play therapy with Anna has had on my tween daughter’s mental health and wellbeing. Anna offered her a judgement-free space where she could share comfortably and encouraged her to identify and develop healthy coping strategies for big emotions.
Her support helped us navigate the beginning of a new stage in my daughter’s life and has had a positive impact on her, as well as on our family dynamic. It has also given me greater confidence as her mum moving forward. Thank you.”

“We were recommended Anna by a friend to support our young child with increasing separation anxiety. The relationship was built and then blossomed quickly, creating a safe space for our child to express how she was feeling. This also opened up opportunities for her to explore these feelings further with us at home.
Anna supported us in navigating these emotions together, offering helpful tips and reassurance along the way. The sessions were really positive for our child, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Anna to other families seeking support. We were able to get started quickly, and Anna was honest and transparent about what she felt was needed, tailoring her approach and taking time to update and debrief us while always being mindful of our child’s boundaries. Thank you so much.”

“Our child attended play therapy with Anna over a ten-week period, following an initial settling-in phase. They quickly warmed to Anna’s welcoming style and enjoyed the sessions each week. We noticed an improvement in confidence and ability to communicate during and after the sessions, particularly around anxiety related to health.
​
Our child was very sad when the sessions ended, having built a positive relationship with Anna. Throughout the process, Anna supported and guided us with regular feedback, and we felt comfortable approaching her with updates on how things were going. We’re sure we’ll remain in touch and would consider further sessions in the future to support our child.”*
