Filial Therapy is a play therapy-based intervention that actively involves parents or carers in the therapeutic process, strengthening relationships and emotional understanding.
Parents and carers develop a deeper understanding of their child’s emotional world and learn therapeutic play skills that can be used at home. This supports emotional connection, trust and long-term positive change.
Sessions include guided play, reflection and support from the therapist. Caregivers are supported to build confidence and emotional attunement, helping children feel safe, understood and supported.
Filial Therapy empowers families by strengthening relationships and embedding therapeutic support into everyday life.
