“Thank you, Fiona and Suzanne, I really appreciate the opportunity your Creative Child Therapies scholarship has provided me in 2026. Completing the training has truly transformed my practice as a school Social Worker. The courses perfectly balance deep knowledge with practical tools that I could use with my primary school students right away.
Thanks to this training, I was able to further develop my knowledge and skills around child-led approaches and watch my students lead the way in naming and externalising their feelings, navigating peer issues, and co-regulating through play. Providing this safe therapeutic space has helped them rewire their nervous systems, which has directly improved their relationships with others, classroom learning and behaviour.
The online workshops were outstanding, highly engaging, and perfectly flexible for a busy work-life schedule. I cannot recommend this exceptional training highly enough to any professional looking to elevate their skills!”
“Reflecting on my scholarship experience with Creative Child Therapy Workshops, I can confidently say it has been a transformative journey for my practice as a school counsellor with the Department of Education. While I’ve had extensive training in talk therapies with teenagers, I often found these approaches didn’t quite resonate with the younger children I work with. Completing the Creative Child Therapy Workshops courses has equipped me with a vibrant, age-appropriate skill set that beautifully blends play therapy techniques with the therapeutic tools I regularly use.
I am deeply grateful for the opportunity this scholarship has provided. It has significantly enhanced my professional practice, deepened my understanding, and strengthened my ability to connect meaningfully with younger children and their families. Thank you, Creative Child Therapy Workshops, for this invaluable experience—it’s truly made a lasting impact.”
“Working for a non-profit community organisation where I work with vulnerable families, I was honoured to be chosen for the CCTW Scholarship. It has been a fantastic opportunity to update my knowledge in such a beautifully practical way. The face to face courses were filled with so many practical strategies that you could take and use in your practice immediately and the online courses so professionally made and engaging, perfect for allowing to you review what you learnt by watching it again. Their courses are a must do for any professionals working with young children, so full of engaging and fun activities the children and parents/carers you work with will love participating in. The activities make you think outside the box of how you could apply them to your child work across different age ranges and having the accompanying books to take away helps consolidate how you then go on to use the strategies in your practice. If you are thinking of applying for the scholarship I couldn’t recommend it highly enough. Thankyou Fiona and Suzanne for such a great opportunity and the generosity of your scholarship program.”
“ This course is a must do as all the children and parents we work with experience anger and most have a negative perception of it. This course gives us the tools to change the narrative about anger and show how we can understand our own anger, how it shows up and practical things we can do when it shows up and act in accordance to what’s important to us. ”
“ If anyone is looking for practical, hands-on, engaging strategies underpinned by evidence-based practices which they can readily implement with children of different ages and backgrounds, I would highly recommend this course! ”
“ Fantastically full of practical, useful, easy to follow activities. Easy to follow and the course itself was easy to work through step by step allowing you to stop and have a break and come back to it when needed. I learned lots more practical strategies to add to my repertoire from doing this course. Highly recommended. ”
“ Enjoyed the course and the creative tips and ideas, talking through how you would use the ideas with a family. ”
“ Brief and simple and packed with really helpful info to understand what it is about emotions specifically that is important to convey to kids and parents/teachers. Not something covered at uni. ”
“ I loved it – thank you ”
“ Excellent – as always! Looking forward to the book! Enjoy the theory/concept part, as well as new ideas and insights. Leave with lots of new ideas to refresh my work. ”
