The Power of Play: How NDIS Play-Based Therapy Supports Children in FNQ

What is Play-Based Therapy?

Play-based therapy is an evidence-based approach that uses structured and unstructured play to support a child's emotional, cognitive, and social development. It allows children to express themselves naturally, work through challenges, and build confidence in a way that feels comfortable and engaging.

How Does Play-Based Therapy Help?

Emotional Regulation – Helping children identify, understand, and manage their feelings.

Communication & Social Skills – Encouraging positive interactions and relationship-building.

Problem-Solving & Resilience – Strengthening coping strategies in a fun, supportive environment.

Confidence & Independence – Empowering children to make choices and navigate the world around them.

NDIS & Play-Based Therapy: Making Support Accessible

We work with families under the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) as well as those without NDIS funding to ensure children receive the support they need. Our services are designed to be person-centred, outcomes-focused, and tailored to each child’s unique strengths and challenges.

We offer flexible, family-friendly therapy options across FNQ, including Atherton, Kuranda, Mossman, Cairns Northern Beaches, and Edmonton.
