Child Centred Play Therapy is an evidence-based treatment that is based on the belief that every child has an innate ability to express their innermost feelings, thoughts, and challenges; to learn to regulate their feelings and behaviours; to develop a positive sense of self; to problem solve solutions; and to improve resilience in even the most difficult of situations. Play Therapy is suitable for children aged 2 to 12 years of age.
The therapist’s communication style fosters an accepting, friendly, and trustworthy relationship while establishing limits in the context of the child’s natural language of play. The child is capable of doing the necessary internal effort to heal themselves and make long-term improvements. Sessions are delivered face to face and through telehealth (online).

At Tidda Counselling, we offer Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy – a proven, evidence-based approach for processing traumatic experiences, reducing distress, and helping you move forward with confidence.
Whether you’re struggling with post-traumatic stress, anxiety, grief, phobias, or painful life experiences, EMDR can help you gently reprocess memories so they no longer hold the same emotional power.
EMDR is a specialised form of psychotherapy that helps the brain reprocess distressing memories in a safe and structured way. Using bilateral stimulation (such as guided eye movements, tapping, or sounds), EMDR assists your brain in making sense of traumatic events and integrating them into your life story without the overwhelming emotional charge
