When my daughter was going through a very challenging time she started play and sand play therapy with Julie.
Due to my daughter’s anxiety she had developed a nervous tic, this has now gone since the play therapy.
Julie was soon able to understand my daughter and her issues and visited the school to speak to the staff suggesting strategies to help my daughter during therapy.
My daughter has a strong personality and I wasn’t sure if she would trust someone else to open up how she truly felt, but she managed to do this well and build up a trustable relationship, so my daughter was able to do lots of inner work , especially in sand play.
After a few sessions I could see some positive changes in my daughter, she was able to communicate better about her feelings, fears and worries. She became aware of the consequences of her actions and how these effected other around her. Because of this her behaviour changed in a positive way towards her class mates, teachers and especially her little sister.
My relationship is closer as she shares her feelings more openly, she is now able to show her emotions and off load, telling me what is worrying her, this is a relief for her.
My daughter is a lot happier and acts in a mature way
I really appreciate Julies work with my daughter and the absolutely huge positive impact she has had on helping her. My daughter is in a much better place now.
