PLAY THERAPY 

Child play therapy is a counselling approach that aims at helping a child express their thoughts and feelings through play. With the use of play tools/toys, play therapy gives the therapist the chance to enter the child's world and helps the child to communicate their reality in a non-threateneing way.

ADOLESCENT THERAPY

Adolescent therapy aims to provide the adolescent with a supportive and safe space to explore the challenges in this developmental stage. The therapy aims to promote a better understanding of the educational, social and psychological pressures. Therapy includes discussing their thoughts and experiences in order to (1) promote functioning on a personal, psychological, educational, emotional, familial and social level, and

(2) Enhance feelings of empowerment, self-reliance and independence.

This is an importanat process in supporting young adults navigate their way into the working world.
