About the Practice
When a child’s worries are showing through behaviour, play therapy can help them communicate before the adults run out of patience. Porty Play Therapy Edinburgh supports Edinburgh 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.

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

Clinic and School-Based Sessions: 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: Support can happen close to the child’s normal world, making it easier for parents and schools to stay connected.
