Child Art Therapy, Family Support & Parent Counselling in Sandringham

If you are looking for child art therapy in Sandringham, you may be looking for an approach that feels safer, softer and more engaging than a conventional therapy setting. Many children communicate stress through their bodies, behaviour, play, avoidance, anger, withdrawal or worry long before they can clearly explain what they are feeling. Art therapy can help make inner experiences more visible, manageable and understood.

At Art Therapy Bayside, we support children, adolescents and families through creative, relational and client-led therapy. Sessions are tailored to the individual child and can include art-based exploration, play-based engagement, reflection and counselling support where appropriate.

Child therapy for Sandringham families

Our work can support children and adolescents experiencing:

  • anxiety and emotional overwhelm

  • difficulties with regulation

  • school stress

  • family separation or change

  • trauma responses

  • behavioural difficulties

  • neurodivergent support needs

  • communication and confidence challenges

We also offer parent counselling in Sandringham, recognizing that when a child is struggling, parents often need a place to reflect, regulate and feel supported too.

Flexible ways to access support

In-person sessions at Wickham Rd, Highett VIC 3190 | Home visits | School visits | Telehealth

All sessions are by appointment, booked through the Contact page.

Why Sandringham families choose this approach

What many families want is not just “therapy” in a generic sense, but support that is meaningful for the child in front of them. A child-led and relationship-based approach can be easier to engage with than highly structured support. Creative work offers another pathway into emotional expression, especially for children who are overwhelmed, shut down, highly sensitive or struggling with direct verbal processing.
