Hi, I'm Alex

Play Therapist (Masters of Child Play Therapy)

I am a qualified therapist, having completed a Masters of Child Play Therapy at Deakin University. Most importantly, I am passionate about working with children and their families, to achieve best outcomes for all.

I have worked closely with children and families for the past eight years across both educational and therapeutic settings.  

Through my work, I have seen and supported children to overcome challenges, work through trauma, and gain understanding and confidence within themselves and those around them. 

Additionally, I have worked with families to learn and implement strategies that have strengthened their relationships with their children and their ability to communicate openly with one another to achieve desired outcomes.  

I firmly believe that when children are provided a safe and supportive environment to play and be themselves, they gain skills and strengths that will last a lifetime. I am committed to offering support to children and families within a caring environment - with a focus on facilitating continual growth and strengthening of skills. I believe in the growth mindset of children and the importance and impact of their families and caregivers on their development.
