It's been RuLu's busiest year, filled with lots of amazing work and people and with lots of exciting things to come! 👀 I'm sooo grateful!

For now though, it's time for me to have a big rest and fill myself back up!

There might be the odd wee scheduled post, but other than that, I'm checkin' out and all messages, emails etc, will be responded to when I'm back on Wednesday 2nd September.

All the best 💚

As the School Term ends and Summer approaches, I now have more time and space to support Children and their families through Play and Creative Arts Therapy, and Parent Support, in the RuLu space.

When looking for Therapeutic support for a Child, or anyone, it's so important that the Therapist holds the right and relevant qualifications, training and experience to carry out the support in a safe, therapeutic, ethical, affirming, holisitc way!

You can know I'm a Certified Play and Creative Arts Therapist (MSc, PG Dip) associated with The UK Society of Play and Creative Art Therapies (PTUK), The Academy of Play and Child Psychotherapies (APAC) and the Professional Standards Authority.
I blend all my education, knowledge and experience with continued learning (I'll never be an expert, always learning!) and my own lived experiences to support the Children and families I work alongside.

If you feel your Child and family, or one you know could benefit from Therapeutic support over the Summer months, please feel free to send me a message or email [email protected]

This brilliant event by STRIVE NI 'When School Feels Impossible: Compassionate Support for Parents' is taking place this coming Thursday 14th May.

A safe, supportive space for Parents to gain information, support, hope and the chance to meet other Parents along the same journey of supporting a child who struggles to attend school.

I'll be there on the evening to share all about the supports we have available here at RuLu that may be of help too.

Some spaces are still available, you can click on the link on the original post below to book!

15 spaces remaining now for our event next week ❤️

We will have some stalls present on the day highlighting available support including Children's Law Centre, Parentline NI, RuLu Play Therapy and more 🤞

We will also have a parent from one of our peer support groups introducing a pathways of support document that has been worked on 🥰

A wee look at this past weekends 'Beyond the Noise' conference.

A brilliant day that I'm grateful to have been a part of as a stall holder. Lots of really interesting, powerful chats with Parents/Carers and professionals, looking forward to what will come in continuing to support children and young people, and their families. My brain is ticking away!✨🌱

As we're heading towards the end of March and beginning of April, this means I now have more availability for Play and Creative Arts Therapy support for Children and Young People here at RuLu.

Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday, both Morning and Afternoon sessions available.

Play and Creative Arts Therapy gives Children and Young People a safe time and space to be themselves and allows for exploration, release, processing, growth and much more 🌱✨

If you'd like to explore Emotional and Mental Health support for your child, one you know or maybe work with in your service, please get in touch for more info.
