💛 Self-esteem can show up in more ways than we realise.

A child who avoids trying, becomes upset when they make a mistake, constantly compares themselves to others or says “I’m just bad at everything” may be struggling with how they see themselves.

Supporting self-esteem isn’t simply about giving more praise. It can involve helping children recognise their strengths, develop confidence in their abilities, respond differently to mistakes and build skills to manage challenging thoughts and emotions.

At Freedom Therapy Services, our team can support children and young people to develop a healthier and more confident sense of self 🌱

Why do we start with a Parent-Only Consultation?

For many of our child clients, the first appointment is held with their parent or caregiver.

This gives you an opportunity to speak openly with the therapist about your child’s strengths, needs, current challenges, relevant history and what you’re hoping to achieve through therapy.

It also helps the therapist learn more about your child before meeting them, so they can thoughtfully prepare for their first session and begin building a positive therapeutic relationship.

At Freedom Therapy Services, we believe that understanding the whole picture helps us provide support that is individualised to each child and family.

A simple conversation can make a big difference.

This R U OK? Day, we're reminded that checking in with someone doesn't require having all the answers. Sometimes, simply asking ""Are you OK?"" and genuinely listening can help someone feel seen, heard, and supported.

Life can be challenging, and many people may be carrying more than we realise. Taking a moment to reach out to a friend, family member, colleague, or neighbour could mean more than you know.

Remember:
💛 Ask the question.
👂 Listen without judgement.
🤝 Encourage support if it's needed.
❤️ Check in again.

You don't have to fix someone's problems but just letting them know they're not alone can make all the difference.

Today, and every day, let's help create a community where people feel safe to talk about their mental health.

Are you OK? I'm here to hear.

A Behaviour Support Plan is only the beginning.

At Freedom Therapy Services, we believe meaningful behaviour support goes beyond assessment and plan development. Implementation is where strategies are brought to life and skills are built in the environments that matter most.

We pride ourselves on being on the ground with individuals, families and support teams - working alongside them to put strategies into practice, problem-solve barriers, and build consistency and confidence over time.

Through direct, practical support, we focus on developing meaningful skills that promote greater independence, participation and quality of life.

Because a plan shouldn’t just sit on a shelf - it should create meaningful change in everyday life.

Transitions can be challenging for some children, especially when they involve stopping a preferred activity, unexpected changes or moving into something unfamiliar.

Here are a few simple ways to make transitions easier:
⏰ Give a warning
Let your child know a change is coming - “5 more minutes, then it’s time to pack away.”

👀 Use visual supports
Visual schedules, timers or “first-then” boards can help make what’s happening next more predictable.

💬 Keep instructions clear
Use short, simple language and avoid giving too many instructions at once.

🙌 Offer choices
Where possible, provide two appropriate options - “Would you like to pack away the blocks or the cars first?”

⭐ Praise successful transitions
Acknowledge their effort - “You did a great job finishing up and getting ready to leave!”

💛 Remember: Consistency, predictability and preparation can help children feel more confident and supported during transitions.

🌈 Sensory play is more than just fun- it supports learning, development, and regulation.

Sensory play encourages children to explore the world around them through touch, sight, sound, smell, and movement. It provides meaningful opportunities to build important developmental skills while keeping play enjoyable and engaging.

Some of the benefits of sensory play include:
🧩 Supporting emotional regulation
🤲 Developing fine motor skills and coordination
🧠 Encouraging problem-solving and creativity
💬 Building communication and social interaction
✨ Exploring different textures, sounds, and sensations in a safe and enjoyable way

Whether it's scooping rice, pouring water, playing with sensory balls, or making music together, simple sensory experiences can have a big impact on a child's development.

Every child experiences sensory input differently, so finding activities that match their interests and sensory preferences can help make play both meaningful and enjoyable.
