Teletherapy

Play Therapy Melbourne’s clinicians are experienced in delivering telehealth sessions to support children and families who are unable to attend in clinic sessions. This has continued throughout the COVID-19 restrictions. We run our video sessions on a secure online video platform, which can be accessed via any device, including phones. We can also provide services over the phone or via online chat sessions.

We will help you to set up a space for your child that will support their sessions. For younger children, we may suggest you engage in their supportive play therapy session. We are also able to connect with parents and caregivers online to provide support.

Children respond positively to this platform and we are thrilled with the results we have seen. We are able to connect and engage with children of all ages, including older adolescents. Adults have also enjoyed accessing our play and art-based support via telehealth.

We offer many services over teletherapy, including:

• child-centred play therapy
• adolescent therapy
• parent support sessions
• group sessions
