About the Practice
When a child needs space to heal without being interrogated, play and sand can hold what words cannot. Time and Space for Children Sheffield supports Sheffield families with play-based and counselling-style emotional wellbeing support for children who need more than another conversation at the kitchen table. The focus is safer expression, stronger connection and practical understanding for the adults around the child.

Clinical Expertise
Play therapy, sandplay and therapeutic work with children and young people

Emotional distress, healing, self-expression, difficult experiences and relationship pressure

Play and sandplay can support children whose SEND or developmental needs make direct talking too hard

Why Work With Us?
Sheffield Play Therapy Space: Parents can see the therapist role, membership route and safeguarding position before trusting someone with their child’s inner world.

Play and Sandplay Route: Play, creative work and counselling-style support help children communicate through action, story, art, movement and relationship when direct questions only make them close down.

Parent and School Connection: The work gives children a protected place to process difficult feelings while adults learn to listen differently.
