About Me

Hello my name is Randa.  I have over 10 years experience working with children as a Teacher, Headteacher. As a Play therapist I have worked in Early Years, Schools and Special Schools delivering both one to one Play therapy and group work.

I believe our children are our most valuable asset. If you want to make the world a better place, you need to support our children and give them the best possible start. Maslow, my favourite psychologist, he explains using the hierarchy of needs below by saying when children have their basic needs met, they are in a much better place to access learning. Play Therapy gives them an opportunity to do this.
