Testimonials

We know that therapy has been 100% helpful! We have seen a drastic change in our daughter’s behaviour. She used to be defiant 90% of the time and now she is only defiant about 10% of the time. This has been life-changing for us and it feels like she is a different kid. We are enjoying life way more as a family and we feel like we can breathe now. Things that were such an overwhelming struggle are things that now feel fun and delightful. We are really starting to truly enjoy our daughter now and her ability to give and receive love has been unlocked. It feels like we can function now and we can start to really live and enjoy life as a family

Helen is amazing! Her warmth & genuine interest in getting to know our daughter meant that she quickly built trust and the ability to speak into our daughter's situation with her wisdom and expertise. The difference in our daughter after her sessions with Helen has been remarkable and we are so grateful. We would not hesitate to recommend Helen to anyone!

Kate

Working with Helen helped us so much. After just the first session, both my wife and I felt like the world had been lifted off our shoulders. Helen's ability to truly listen and understand our point of view and then provide useful practical tools was invaluable. For the first time we really felt like someone understood what we needed and truly cared.

Helen's ability to explain complex concepts in a genuine way and even visualise is something we hadn't experienced before.

We have utilised the practical advice and seen immediate improvements with our daughter and would not hesitate to reach out to Helen if we feel that we needed further guidance.

We honestly feel that every parent would benefit from meeting and talking with Helen at least once!

Thanks so much!

My 4 year old son started Play therapy to help with his Selective mutism. In just 16 weeks he made significant progress, his confidence has improved so much, outbursts and tantrums are not as frequent as it used to be and he is happier.

Helen was amazing during the whole process, helping us and making sure we knew every step of the way.

I cannot recommend Helen enough, my son has thrived tremendously!"

Maria

My son and I have had a better relationship this week. I feel he trusts me more and is thriving on behaving nicely to please mama. Therefore, he is more compliant. I can see now the power of really connecting with him, especially paying attention to his roller coaster emotions makes him feel confident as an individual lil man.

Chris

Over the last few years, especially since starting school my son struggled with a few personal issues and we felt it was time to reach out for some help. Helen worked with my son over 12 or so weeks and has been a huge benefit for my son. Helen is kind and calm and my son always looked forward to his play therapy session with Helen.

Sam

Your sessions with our daughter have been a huge help and we’ve seen a big improvement in her behaviour and ability to communicate her needs with us.

Your "Play Therapy has been a life changing experience for both my daughter and myself, our extended family have noticed a huge change in her. She is less anxious, less frustrated, communicating and playing more. Helen has been amazing with facilitating and supporting the process for us and I wouldn't hesitate to contact her should the need arise in the future."

Thank you so much,

We have recently been lucky enough to have engaged the services of Helen Huston to help our son on his journey through some deep-rooted medical trauma. We went through the Play Therapy process and are so grateful for Helen's help. Our child started out with high levels of frustration, anxiety and a number of fears. Helen was wonderful to deal with, the parent only sessions through this journey were especially helpful as they gave us tools and methods for dealing with different behaviors at home. These sessions have given us a new perspective and armed us with new parenting skills. Helen kept us well updated throughout the entire process and forewarned us as our son was due to move through the different stages of the therapy, and the consequent behaviors to expect. Our son has come out the other side of this process with a calmer, less anxious demeanour, with more of an acceptance of things around him. And when things get too hard for him to process we are now, as parents, better equipped to help him through any struggles.
