Child-Centred Play Therapy Sessions
(Child Only)
In these one-on-one sessions, children are supported to express themselves freely through play in a safe and nurturing space. Using a child-centred approach, Jenna follows your child’s lead to help them build resilience, confidence and emotional wellbeing.
Pre-School Play Skills Sessions
(Parent/Carer + Child 2–5 yrs)
These interactive sessions strengthen the bond between you and your child while supporting early social and emotional development. Together, we’ll explore evidence-based play therapy skills you can continue to use at home, laying the foundations for lifelong learning and regulation.
Therapeutic Parenting Skills
(Parent/Carer Only)
These sessions focus on empowering parents and carers with practical strategies to respond to their child’s big emotions and behaviours. Delivered in person or via Telehealth, Jenna provides guidance, empathy and evidence-based tools to help you feel more connected and confident in your parenting.

a little more detail…
INTAKE MEETING
The intake meeting is an integral part of the play therapy process. It can take place in person or over the phone, with therapist and parent/carers present. It allows us the opportunity to meet and for me to learn about your child’s developmental history, interests and strengths, your family’s experiences and any presenting concerns. Children are not in attendance for this meeting in order to protect the development of child/therapist relationship and ensure we are not discussing your child in front of them.
We allow up to 90 minutes for this appointment so that the therapist can gain as much context as possible, get to know your hopes for play therapy and identify focus areas so that an individualised treatment plan can be developed.
PLAY THERAPY SESSIONS
Play therapy sessions are scheduled for 45 minutes, and take place in the playroom with your child and therapist present. CCPT is most effective when children attend sessions on a weekly basis, ideally on the same day and time to support consistency and predictability.
PARENT/CARER UPDATES
Parent/carer updates are scheduled after 4-5 play therapy sessions. They can take place over the phone or in person, allowing 30-60minutes, as required. The update is conducted with the parent/carers of the child and without the child present. The update aims to find out how your child is going at home and in other settings and review shared goals. You will be provided with a broad overview of how things are going in session and any therapeutic skills or strategies that may support your child and family at home.
REPORTS
By request, therapists can provide written reports. Reports may include a session summary, progress, any assessment results, and further recommendations.
