Parent Support Sessions
Understanding your child, making sense of behaviour and finding a way forward together.
Parenting can bring moments of uncertainty, worry and frustration, particularly when your child's behaviour feels difficult to understand or manage.
Parent support sessions offer a space to talk through what's happening, explore what might be underneath your child's behaviour and consider new ways of responding.
Together, we can gently unpack what's going on for your child, think about what their behaviour might be communicating and explore practical ideas and strategies that may help.
I believe that parents are the experts in their own children. You know your child, their personality, their experiences and what life looks like for your family. I bring my experience and understanding from working with children through play therapy.
By bringing these perspectives together, we can develop a better understanding of your child and think collaboratively about what might work best for them and your family.
There is no judgement and no one-size-fits-all approach. Sessions are guided by what feels most important to you, offering time to reflect, ask questions and explore ideas in a supportive space.
Session Options
Individual session
€90 per hour
Three-session package
€240 for three sessions
A package of three sessions offers the opportunity to explore concerns in more depth, try out ideas between sessions and reflect together on what is helping and what might need adjusting.
My aim is to help you feel more confident in understanding your child and supported in finding a way forward that works for your family.
Parent Child Attachment Play
Want to feel more connected to your child?
Parent Child Attachment Play is a gentle, practical approach that helps parents strengthen their relationship with their child through play, nurture and positive interaction.
Caught in the same arguments, struggling to understand your child's behaviour?
Parenting can be wonderful, but it can also feel hard. You might find yourself caught in the same arguments, struggling to understand your child's behaviour or feeling like you're constantly telling them what to do.
PCAP offers a way to slow things down, understand what's underneath the behaviour and build connection through play.
What is Parent Child Attachment Play (PCAP)?
Parent-Child Attachment Play is a relationship-based approach that helps parents strengthen their connection with their child through play, nurture and positive interaction.
It helps you become more curious about what your child may be communicating and find practical ways to respond that build connection and security.
It's not about being a perfect parent. It's about becoming more connected.
Could Parent Child Attachment Play (PCAP) be right for you?
PCAP may be helpful if you:
Want to feel closer to your child

Parent Child Attachment Play (PCAP) isn't Play Therapy
PCAP focuses on the parent-child relationship, rather than providing individual therapy for your child.
If your child is experiencing significant emotional or behavioural difficulties, Play Therapy may be more appropriate. If you're unsure, we can talk about which approach might be the best fit.
