Huw Fifield
Based in South Wales, I run my own Educational and Wellbeing Service part of which supports children and adults with anxiety due to their additional needs such as autism, dyslexia, depression and ADHD. This service has proved to be successful and many clients have benefited from my support. I have undertaken Sand Tray training in addition to my Play Therapy Diploma and am skilled in helping clients understand the energy and meaning of their creation if necessary. I am particularly skilled in using therapeutic stories, drama and art to identify and support children. Language is vital in therapy and I pay careful attention to how students verbalise their problems using this to inform my practice. My wide experience means I am able to identify needs and provide the support a client needs to process their difficulties. If necessary I can signpost other services which may support the child alongside play therapy.
As a qualified play therapist, I am able to use a range of strategies to help children process difficult feelings, frustrations and trauma. My background as a SENCO and dyslexia specialist means I am particularly sensitive to how difficulty with learning can sometimes contribute to emotional difficulties and I have a holistic approach to understanding the client’s emotional challenges.
