I'm Natalie Astin, a registered psychotherapist and child-centred play therapist. In child-centred play therapy, children from 3 to 12 years old can become aware of how they feel about themselves and others and how they view the world. Many children who have experienced the loss or serious illness of a close relative may be feeling scared, worried or angry. In play therapy, they can express feelings fully, become responsible for their behaviour, and learn new ways to cope and view themselves, others, and the world. For older clients, I work in a person-centred way using talking and action methods based on my training in Transactional Analysis psychotherapy. My website is: www.playconnectgrow.nz
