Play Therapy SA - North Adelaide 20 Mann Terrace, North Adelaide, South Australia 5006

Welcome to Play Therapy SA - North Adelaide! Located on Mann Terrace in North Adelaide, our establishment is dedicated to promoting children's wellbeing through the power of play therapy.

Play Therapy is a unique approach that may be unfamiliar to many, but we assure you that it truly works wonders for children. Our team of skilled and trained therapists specialize in reaching children on a different level, helping them process, heal, and thrive.

At Play Therapy SA - North Adelaide, your child's best interest is at the heart of our approach. We are proud to be neurodivergent affirming, ensuring that every child feels comfortable and accepted in our playrooms. Additionally, we have a strong foundation in trauma-informed care, providing a safe and supportive environment for children to explore their emotions and experiences.

Our founder, Renae, established Play Therapy South Australia (PTSA) in 2018 with just a playroom and a passion for helping children. After completing her Masters in Play Therapy, Renae's dedication and expertise have grown PTSA into the longest running and largest Play Therapy Practice in SA. With four clinics, six playrooms, and a team of nine Play Therapists and one Art Therapist, we are able to help over 100 kids per week.

The PTSA team is a group of passionate therapists who are committed to making a positive difference in children's lives, one session at a time.

Don't just take our word for it - hear from some of our satisfied parents and caregivers:

"My daughter started with PTSA due to Selective Mutism, she wouldn't talk at school, yet we couldn't stop her talking at home. Throughout the sessions, she became more confident, took chances, and finally made a friend she could speak to. What more could a parent want!"

"As foster parents, our children came to us with a history of trauma. They were used to playing out scenes of their past, but we didn't know how to help them make sense of it. That's where Play Therapy came in. In a short time, the kids felt better, their behavior improved, and everything became calmer at home. We still have bad days, but we know the kids are thriving. We feel good knowing that they feel safe to talk or play out anything they need to process in the playroom."

"I was not so sure what to expect from Play Therapy, but it was recommended by a friend. My daughter is autistic, and I didn't want anyone to change her. Play Therapy made her feel like the most amazing person ever (which she is). The therapist just let her be herself, and knowing someone saw how fantastic she is, that also really helped me!"
