About the Business
Welcome to The Play Therapy Studio, a Child and Family Counselling Service located in the heart of Murrumbeena, Australia. Our mission is to connect children and families through the power of play, expression, and creativity.
At The Play Therapy Studio, we understand the importance of meaningful connections within families. That's why we offer a safe and therapeutic space where children and caregivers can explore and express themselves through play-based and expressive therapies. Our approach is real, effective, and authentic, aiming to strengthen emotional well-being, resilience, and mental health for both children and their caregivers.
Through evidence-based counselling approaches, our goal is to provide healing and growth opportunities for children and families. By using play and creative expression as the primary means of communication during therapy sessions, we can tailor our approach to meet the unique needs and challenges of each individual.
Our sessions help children and caregivers feel more validated and connected, allowing them to gain important insight into their emotions and develop emotional resilience and personal growth. We also focus on teaching regulation and co-regulation, helping individuals recognize and manage their own internal emotional states. Additionally, our therapy sessions aim to enhance self-confidence, self-awareness, and a sense of safety and predictability.
At The Play Therapy Studio, our Play Therapists are accredited Mental Health Professionals who are passionate about supporting families and children through all kinds of experiences. They have undergone extensive training, including the Advanced Clinical Program in Play Therapy or accreditation through Interplay Australia. Our therapists also benefit from expert supervision from accredited supervisors, ensuring the highest quality of care.
We are proud to offer support for Self-managed and Plan-managed NDIS Clients, further expanding our services to those in need.
If you are seeking a nurturing and innovative approach to child and family counselling, The Play Therapy Studio is here to support you. Contact us today to begin your journey towards healing, growth, and meaningful connections.

"Our son has been seeing Katie for almost 6 months now. Within that time she has created a safe and positive environment which has made him grow in confidence. He loves coming to the playrooms and spending time with her. Katie is passionate about what she does and this is important to us when introducing interventions for our son. Thank you Katie."
"I can’t thank Kate enough for what she’s helped me and my daughter through in the last 6 months or so if anyone doing it abit hard please consider seeing Kate and the guys at play therapy studio you will find your life so much better and can handle things so much differently"
"” I can’t speak highly enough of Kate. I think she is an amazing play therapist and her play therapy methods, support and passion for what she does has fitted in so well with my family. The gentle help and guidance she has given myself and my little Miss S has been so beneficial. I’ve expanded my understanding of her world as a 5yr old and gained new ways to work with and communicate with her. For Miss S I think it has been a supportive space that was just hers, to work through what she might be struggling with. Mother, Flavia"
"I highly recommend play therapy with Kate at The Play Therapy Studio. Our 5 year old daughter was having some difficulties with emotional regulation and socialisation/behaviour concerns. Initially we were advised to see a psychologist or possibly Occupational Therapist, but then came across Play Therapy and thought it may be a good fit for our situation. It was! Kate’s kind nature, her play therapy methods and approach are wonderful and provided such a safe space for our daughter to process her emotions in a productive way. She is now thriving at school and doing well with transitions of activities throughout the day. We’re thrilled that she’s happy playing with different groups of children and joining in games at any stage and not just directing the play herself. Don’t hesitate about Play Therapy with Kate. It will help! Kate has enabled our daughter to be the best version of herself. Thank you Kate."
