  • Our approach

    Playsense takes a collaborative, child-centred approach that values children's autonomy, mastery and purpose. Rather than focusing on behaviour shaping, sessions build children's self-esteem by giving them ownership over the therapy process. This motivates engagement and helps children reach their goals while being curious about their own strengths and what works best for them. The practice welcomes and celebrates neurodiversity, supporting children to connect with others in ways that suit them. Sessions are designed around what matters to each child, fostering their sense of agency throughout therapy.

  • Working with families

    Playsense is a family-centred practice that recognises caregivers as the most important people in shaping children's lives. The team works to involve families in everything they do, building close relationships with the families they support. This partnership approach means parents and carers are active participants in their child's therapy journey rather than passive observers.
