Filial Play Coaching
Child-Parent Relationship Coaching
As a parent, are you feeling a disconnect with your child or experiencing behaviours that you are struggling to manage? Do you feel overwhelmed with parenting and you just want to help your child feel happy again or improve your relationship?
Filial Play Coaching is a parent-focused intervention that strengthens the bond and attachment between parent and child through non-directive play. Kelly works one-to-one with parents, teaching specific skills to help them engage in 10 minutes of play, five times a week.
This approach supports secure attachment, enhances communication, and provides a safe space to work through challenges together. Over time, it can improve children’s behaviour, help them manage difficult emotions, and deepen the parent-child relationship through play activities tailored to the child’s interests.
Kelly will guide you in creating a plan to support your child through uninterrupted, child-led play, helping you strengthen your bond and encourage positive changes. You will also be given strategies to use at home to support your child through difficult situations.
As parents, you become the key agents of change, improving your child’s emotional wellbeing and behaviour. Filial play coaching is a preventative approach, used early to address emotional, behavioural, and relational challenges before they reach a crisis stage.
Feel free to contact Kelly to discuss if this is the right option for you and your child.
