About me
Hello, My name is Emily and I am a Play Therapist working in Lancaster and Morecambe. I have my own therapy space called The Rainbow Hub which i have specially tailored for families and children in need of their own therapeutic space. My hope is for every family who enters the space to feel safe, free from judgement and hopeful.
My passion is to help children connect their heads to their hearts, and in turn, help families feel stronger connections together.
All children deserve to shine and I am here to help them reach their full potential.
As a Filial Therapist (Family Therapy) my aim is to work with you and your children to create long lasting, happy relationships. You will learn skills in playing, communicating and empathy which can be used in almost any situation.
