Services

At Healing Tails Therapy we believe on supporting children's learning and development. We believe that working collaboratively with schools and kinders can lead to better outcomes for children and assist educators and parents to best support children's individual needs. We offer school and kinder observations and consultations to assist with the development of individual learning and behaviour plans to assist & encourage engagement and a successful relationship with education and home life.
Play Therapy Sessions: Ages 3-12
Here at Healing Tails we use play therapy as a valuable resource for helping individuals, particularly children, heal from emotional and behavioral challenges. Play Therapy provides a safe and supportive environment where individuals can express themselves, explore their feelings, and develop coping strategies through play. This approach is particularly effective for trauma recovery, anxiety, and other emotional and developmental issues.
Pet Therapy & Art Therapy Sessions
Art Therapy Sessions:
Here at Healing Tails, we use art therapy to help heal the mind by harnessing the transformative power of creativity. Our approach provides a safe and nurturing environment where individuals can express their emotions, explore their thoughts, and connect with their inner selves through various artistic mediums. By engaging in creative activities, participants not only discover new ways to communicate their feelings but also experience profound therapeutic benefits, such as stress relief and personal growth. At Healing Tails, we believe that art can be a powerful tool for healing, fostering resilience, and promoting overall mental well-being.
Pet Therapy Sessions:
Here at Healing Tails, we use pet interaction therapy to help heal the mind by connecting individuals with the unconditional love and companionship of animals. Our approach recognises the profound impact that pets can have on emotional well-being, providing comfort, reducing stress, and fostering a sense of belonging. Through guided interactions with our animals, participants can experience the joys of bonding with these affectionate creatures, which often leads to improved mental health outcomes. At Healing Tails, we believe that the healing power of pets can create a nurturing environment that promotes emotional resilience and personal growth.
Discovering The Outdoors
At Healing Tails, we believe in the power of fostering the relationship between children and the great outdoors as a vital component of healing and growth. Spending time in nature allows children to engage their senses, explore their environment, and connect with the world around them. This immersive experience not only promotes physical activity and well-being but also enhances emotional resilience and reduces stress. By encouraging outdoor play and exploration, we aim to help children build confidence, develop social skills, and cultivate a sense of wonder and appreciation for nature. At Healing Tails, we understand that these moments spent outdoors can be transformative, providing a foundation for lasting mental and emotional health.
