evidence-based

we are passionate about supporting emotional regulation, feeding, and reducing mealtime stress. our therapy is relationship-based, neurodiversity-affirming, and grounded in evidence-informed approaches. we are certified in collaborative proactive solutions, DIR floortime, early start denver model (rejecting behavioural approaches), tuning in to kids, acceptance and commitment therapy, and circle of security parenting.

we believe that play is a child’s most natural way of learning, connecting, and making sense of their world. our sessions are playful, creative, and designed to spark curiosity, courage, and connection — creating space for children to engage fully while working towards meaningful goals.

in collaboration with you, we completely individualise the supports your child and family need.

  • relationship-based.

  • trauma-sensitive.

  • neurodiversity-affirming.

  • engaging & fun.

child-centred

at trust children, we believe therapy, play, and stories are most powerful when they flow from the child’s own ideas. energy flows where focus goes—and when our focus rests gently on a child’s strengths, interests, and wonder, that’s where growth naturally unfolds.

every child holds an inborn drive to learn, connect, and make sense of their world. when we honour their curiosity and follow their lead, learning becomes meaningful, joyful, and lasting.

we resist rushing or forcing skill development in areas a child may not yet feel ready for. doing so risks undermining their confidence and dampening their natural motivation. instead, we practise attuned and respectful partnership—trusting that growth feels strongest and safest when children are valued, supported, and in charge of their journey.

this approach shapes everything we do, most importantly, our podcast. brave sparks offers a playful and groundbreaking way to share therapy notes in action—each story flows from the child’s own ideas, reflecting their unique therapeutic journey and celebrating their voice, wonder, and strengths.
