About the Practice
When a child cannot access ordinary services because trust, disability or trauma is in the way, therapy needs to meet the family more carefully. Safe Haven Therapy Services South Yorkshire 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, family therapy, psychotherapeutic assessment, consultation and parent/carer support

Developmental trauma, neurodiversity, disability, illness, attachment stress and barriers to accessing support

Service materials explicitly consider neurodiversity, intellectual or physical disability and developmental trauma

Why Work With Us?
South Yorkshire Safe Haven Route: Parents can see the therapist role, membership route and safeguarding position before trusting someone with their child’s inner world.

Therapy Assessment and Parent Support: 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: Families can access support that understands why the usual route may not feel safe or possible.
