Group Play Therapy Holiday Program
First Week of School Holidays - Monday 23rd of September - Friday 27th of September / 9:30am-10:30am Balwyn North Clinic and Malvern East clinics
$850 for the 5 x 1 hour sessions / maximum of 6 children in each group
We are offering an intensive group play therapy program for children. Based on Integrative Play Therapy approaches, our therapists facilitate tailored and unstructured therapy groups to meet the unique needs of all children attending. Each group has a maximum of 6 children and three therapists (one therapist to every two children).
The groups are thoughtfully designed to include children with a range of presenting needs and goals. This 'mix' of group members gives children the opportunity to experience therapeutic benefits from supported 'peer modelling' - that is, the opportunity to spend time with, and around, others who may have varying and unique strengths and difficulties. This allows children to gain from time with peers and with play therapists.
If you're interested, please get in touch with us by phone or email to secure your spot or to ask any questions you may have.
Warmly,
