Canopy Children's Therapy

Capacity Building & Everyday Skills

Early Childhood Development Support • Parent & Family Support

Registered Play Therapist offering play therapy, counselling and family supports to children and families in Geelong and surrounds. Through my practice, Canopy Children's Therapy in Newtown, I work with children in a warm, welcoming space where they can be themselves and feel understood. My approach is child-centred, neuro-affirming, trauma-informed and strengths-based, and I work closely with parents and carers so the progress carries into home and school life. I support children with big feelings, separation anxiety, school refusal, social challenges, transitions and masking. I have a special interest in supporting highly sensitive girls and children who have experienced medical trauma or fear of medical procedures. Under our canopy, every child can thrive.
