Sun Rose Children’s Therapy provides compassionate and professional children’s therapy in Flemington for families seeking support with emotional, behavioural, or developmental concerns. Our clinic works closely with parents, educators, and community networks to ensure every child feels understood, supported, and empowered. We take time to understand each child’s strengths, challenges, and daily experiences so we can offer personalised therapeutic care that truly makes a difference.
Children express themselves in unique ways, and they often communicate feelings through behaviour rather than words. This is why our therapy model focuses on connection, trust, and developmentally appropriate strategies guided by an experienced children’s therapist in Flemington specialising in play-based mental health care. Whether your child is struggling with anxiety, emotional regulation, confidence, social skills, or attention-related difficulties, we are here to support their well-being with warmth and expertise.
We are a neuro-affirming practice, supporting children with ADHD, emotional sensitivity, and developmental differences by focusing on regulation, connection, and understanding rather than compliance or behaviour control.
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.
Play Therapy in Flemington
Sun Rose Children’s Therapy offers specialised play therapy in Flemington for children who need a gentle and effective way to explore emotions, build confidence, and work through challenges. Play is a natural language for children, and therapeutic play allows them to express feelings they may not yet understand or have the vocabulary to describe.
Play therapy is especially helpful for children who feel overwhelmed by big emotions, experience anxiety or separation stress, struggle at school, or find it difficult to talk openly about how they are feeling.
Through engaging and meaningful play experiences, children can:
-
Strengthen their emotional regulation skills
-
Build confidence in social interactions
-
Process difficult life events such as separation or loss
-
Improve communication and problem-solving abilities
-
Work through anxiety, behavioural challenges, or frustration
-
Explore emotions safely and at their own pace
Our play therapy in Flemington sessions use toys, art, storytelling, imaginative play, and sensory experiences to help children feel secure and expressive. With guidance from a qualified play therapist in Flemington, children learn healthier ways to cope, communicate, and navigate everyday situations.

“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.”
