Welcome to Emotions at Play

If you're looking for support for your child, you are in the right place.

 

I'm Gillian, a qualified and experienced children's therapist and the founder of Emotions at Play. Through the power of play, creativity, and caregiver support, I help children understand their emotions, make sense of their experiences, and develop confidence. My therapy sessions are mainly available in West and North Yorkshire. 

​

​​Alongside my therapy services, and drawing on my psychotherapy training, I co-created the Emotions at Play book collection in collaboration with award-winning illustrator and designer Sarah-Leigh Wills.

The stories gently support young children in understanding feelings, navigating life experiences and building emotional literacy through storytelling and play.

​

​Whether you're looking for therapeutic support, guidance, or resources to use at home or in your work, I'm so glad you're here.
