Are you worried your child seems stressed, disconnected or unhappy?  

Held in our welcoming Brisbane studio, this 8-week group program delivers one hour of evidence-based creative counselling each week. Facilitated by Jen, our Level 3 Master Counsellor, these research-driven sessions focus on building emotional literacy. Each week, the group explores a different core theme—such as navigating anger, practising positive self-talk, or cultivating gratitude. Through open, guided discussions and intentional creative expression, participants learn to identify their feelings, understand their physical responses, and develop practical, healthy coping strategies.

"My son loved his art class, especially drawing with all the different products.
He loved it so much that he came home and continued to draw. Thanks for making it an enjoyable class. He can’t wait to return next week."

Where are we located?

Our welcoming clinic and art studio is located at 18 Blandford Street, The Grange, on the north side of Brisbane. Free parking is available behind the clinic or on the street.

Do parents stay during the session?

For individual assessments and psychology sessions, parent involvement depends on the child's age and specific needs. For our group programs, we encourage parents to drop and go, as participants often feel more comfortable sharing openly with their peers when parents aren't in the room. However, you are always welcome to wait in our comfortable waiting area.

Do I need to book?

Yes, bookings are essential for all assessments, individual therapy sessions, and group programs.

Do you offer bespoke sessions for schools or teams?

Absolutely. We offer tailored psycho-educational and team-building sessions for schools and organisations. Simply get in touch to discuss your specific needs.
