Therapeutic Approach
Lucinda fosters a relaxed and enjoyable environment where children feel encouraged to engage in play-based therapy as a means of expressing their emotions. One of the key techniques utilised is Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which helps children recognise the link between their thoughts, behaviours, and emotions, while also supporting the development of effective coping strategies. Lucinda adopts a solution-focused approach, supporting children to achieve their goals and ultimately enhancing the quality of life and wellbeing for the child and family.
