Side by Side Therapy

Integrative play and creative therapy for children and families

Welcome to Side by Side Therapy

Welcome!

At Side by Side Therapy we specialise in integrative play and creative therapy for children and families. We work with children of all ages and abilities, offering a unique approach that combines evidence-based practices with the joy and spontaneity of play. We believe that therapy should not only be effective but also engaging and as enjoyable as possible, a place where children and families can laugh, learn, heal and grow. We are dedicated to fostering a supportive and inclusive environment where every child and family feels valued, respected, and heard.
