Helping children heal, grow, and thrive - because every child deserves the chance to feel understood, and every parent deserves to know they're giving their child the best start.
At Sussex Sunshine Play therapy we offer children a safe space to explore, heal, and grow.
With gentle support and understanding, we help you feel confident that you are giving your child the best foundation for emotional wellbeing and resilience.


Play Therapy Services
At Sussex Sunshine Play Therapy, we support children and young people aged 3 to 14.
Our play therapy service helps children navigate a range of challenges, including anxiety, ADHD, bereavement, and family separation.
Each child is welcomed as an individual, with their unique circumstances carefully considered, and families are supported throughout the process.
Play is a child's natural language for making sense of the world. By offering a safe, consistent, and nurturing space, we help foster healing, growth, and emotional wellbeing.
Child centred therapy
Play therapy gives your child a safe and gentle way to work through their feelings and experiences, even when it’s hard to find the words. Through play, children can process worries, build confidence, and find new ways to cope with life’s challenges.
Whether your child is facing anxiety, loss, changes at home, or difficulties with attention, play therapy meets them where they are — at their own pace. With the support of a trained therapist, your child can feel understood, nurtured, and empowered, while you can feel reassured that they are receiving the care they need to grow and heal.
