Have you ever wondered how play therapy can have a life-changing impact on children's mental health? Join us in a riveting conversation with Anna Hodgson, Captain of ClearSky, and Becky Hill, Head of Therapeutic Thinking, as we uncover the secrets of play therapy and creative therapy for children aged 3 to 18. Discover how ClearSky's work in primary schools leads to outstanding outcomes for children's mental well-being and their overall health.

We also dive into the world of parenting programs developed by Becky Hill, designed to support parents and caregivers of children with neurodiverse needs, trauma, and other challenges. Learn about the crucial role of building strong relationships and secure attachments, and the importance of emotional regulation and reflective functioning for parents. Plus, we'll explore three tailored interventions that cater to different developmental stages.

But that's not all! Anna Hodgson shares invaluable insights on the significance of co-regulation in parenting and caring for children with special needs. Learn how to create moments of calm, stay present during distress, recognize when a child needs co-regulation, and provide that much-needed support. Get ready to be enlightened by the power of play therapy and its incredible benefits on children's mental health.
