Sun Rose Children's Therapy specialises in providing play therapy support to children, fostering healing and growth.
Working collaboratively with parents, kindergartens, and schools, we aim to support children across all domains of their lives.
Children's Psychotherapy: Therapeutic Support for Children
Every child deserves to feel understood, supported, and empowered to thrive. At Sun Rose Children’s Therapy, we offer warm, child-centred therapeutic care designed to nurture emotional wellbeing, build resilience, and support healthy development. Our practice provides children’s psychotherapy across North and West Melbourne, working closely with families, educators, and communities to create meaningful and lasting change.
No two children are the same, and neither are their needs. That is why our children's therapy services are thoughtfully tailored to support the unique emotional, social, and developmental challenges your child may be facing. From neurodivergent children (including ADHD and autism) to emotional regulation and trauma recovery, we guide children and their families through every step of their therapeutic journey.
Services
Our services extend to assisting children with a wide array of challenges, including trauma, family breakdown, separation anxiety, depression, emotional regulation difficulties, behavioural concerns, language difficulties, low self-esteem and confidence, grief and loss, depression, and selective mutism. Our practice is recognised for its expertise in supporting children with ADHD.
Children's Counselling and Therapy Services
At Sun Rose Children’s Therapy, we specialise in providing compassionate and evidence-based support for children dealing with a range of challenges. Our service is led by a Mental Health Social Worker and Master-trained Play Therapist who supports children to express themselves, process emotions, and develop essential coping skills. Our practice works collaboratively with psychologists, GPs, schools, and allied health professionals when needed.

Ensuring every child's holistic well-being is at the forefront of our mission. We believe in collaborating closely with the support systems surrounding each child.

“We have been seeing Golnaz weekly for 4 years. She has built a wonderful relationship with our son Rocky and our family. We have seen such great progress.
Golnaz has been such an asset to our team helping Rocky build on his skills and communication through play.Play therapy with Golnaz is by far Rocky’s favourite therapy and lights up when Golnaz arrives with her box of games and activities.
It’s been an absolute joy to see our son Rocky blossom and learn through play with Golnaz.”
