Hello and welcome. I'm Jenny, the founder of My Beautiful Play which provides emotional wellbeing support to children and adults in schools and the local community.
I am an Advanced Drawing and Talking Practitioner and a trainee in Therapeutic Play Skills and also a mum of two. I attended Plymouth Marjon University where I obtained my BA Hons in Primary Education in 2015. Prior to this I worked for over 10 years within the early years sector. I am currently awaiting my accreditation in Post Graduate Certificate in Therapeutic Play Skills.
Throughout my working career I have gathered many skills in working with young people and their families, incorporating this successfully into my work. My experience is varied and has enabled me to respond to and support individuals experiencing emotional challenges with sensitivity, respect and compassion. I am passionate about supporting people to thrive and reach their full potential.
Drawing and Talking allows individuals to discover and communicate emotions through a non-directive technique. As an attachment based therapeutic intervention it is designed to complement CAMHS or other specialist therapies.
Group Drawing and Talking sessions are a short intervention which facilitates emotional and symbolic expression allowing each individual and group member to become more aware of their feelings, able to communicate their feelings and understand how others feel.
Sand Play is a therapeutic intervention which explores the unconscious through the use of sand miniatures. Children and adults are able to explore their feelings and emotions by recreating their own worlds within the sand tray. Research has shown that sand play therapy can help increase emotional expression whilst reducing psychological distress.
Lego Therapy is a group intervention which focuses on collaborative skills. Lego Therapy promotes social interaction, turn taking skills, problem solving and the learning of new concepts.
