      <image:caption>A child's natural language is play. In play therapy sessions, toys, games, sand, playdough and other sensory items are used to support children with connecting with their body and identifying how they're feeling. Children often don't have the words to process their emotions however, through play, they can make sense of their world and work through difficult emotions. More information on play therapy can be found here.</image:caption>

      <image:title>services - EYE MOVEMENT DESENSITIZATION AND REPROCESSING (EMDR) THERAPY</image:title>
      <image:caption>EMDR aims to reduce symptoms of trauma by changing how your memories are stored in your brain. An EMDR therapist does this by leading you through a series of bilateral (side-to-side) eye movements as you recall traumatic or triggering experiences in small segments, until those memories no longer cause distress. EMDR therapy is on offer for those aged 4+ years.</image:caption>
