Helping Families Thrive Through Play and Connection
Support For Parents, Carers and Families.
At Earth Seeds Therapy, we understand that family life can sometimes feel overwhelming, especially when your child struggles with focus, sensory challenges, emotional regulation, or everyday routines. You may have tried strategies at home or school, but still feel something deeper is standing in the way of your child’s confidence and participation.
That’s where we can help.
We bring together Occupational Therapy, Children’s Therapy, and Neuroscience-informed practice to help children thrive in their daily lives — at home, in school, and in the world around them.
What We Offer for Families:
Occupational Therapy Assessments
A holistic look at your child’s everyday life, including sensory preferences, motor skills, emotional regulation, and routines. We identify barriers to participation and provide practical, realistic strategies for home and school.
Occupational Therapy Sessions
These sessions are designed to help children build the skills they need for everyday life; from motor coordination and handwriting to organisation, self-care, and sensory regulation. Each session is play-based and tailored to your child’s unique strengths and challenges.
Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP)
A listening-based intervention that helps support regulation, attention, and emotional connection by working directly with the nervous system. Delivered in a calm, supported environment, SSP can help children feel more settled and connected in their relationships and learning.
Children’s Therapy Sessions
Using a blend of play therapy, trauma-informed approaches, and sensory regulation, sessions provide a space for children to explore feelings, develop confidence, and build emotional safety through connection and creativity.
Parent Consultations
We believe parents are the heart of any child’s progress. Parent sessions help you understand your child’s sensory and emotional world, learn co-regulation tools, and feel confident supporting their needs day-to-day.
Parent Coaching & Support
Individual or small-group sessions for parents who want to deepen their understanding of nervous system regulation, sensory needs, and playful connection. These sessions offer guidance, reassurance, and practical tools you can use at home.
Who We Support
We work with families who may notice their child:
- Struggles to focus or attend at school
- Finds certain sensations (noise, touch, clothing) overwhelming
- Has big emotional responses or frequent shutdowns
- Finds transitions or change difficult
- Has delayed fine or gross motor skills
- Feels anxious, withdrawn, or disconnected
- Has experienced trauma, loss, or early adversity and needs support to feel safe, connected, and ready to engage
Whether your child has a diagnosis (such as autism, ADHD, DCD) or not, we focus on the whole child, not the label.
Before we found Helené, every day felt like a struggle. Getting out of the house was hard, and school mornings were full of tears and shouting — for all of us. She helped us see that our son wasn’t being difficult, he was overwhelmed.
"Our daughter, who is autistic, struggled with big emotions and everyday challenges, but through her time with Helené she’s built confidence and learned ways to manage things that used to feel impossible"
"What stood out most was how much Helené cared. She worked closely with school so that everyone was on the same page, and helped make her transition to high school a positive one. I honestly don’t know where we’d be without her support — she’s been an anchor for all of us."
Our Environment:
Therapy sessions take place in our woodland yurt, which we call 'The Roost', online or in schools where appropriate.
At Earth Seeds Therapy, we believe our natural setting allows children to relax, move, and explore - helping their bodies and minds regulate more easily. For many, this environment feels less formal and more nurturing than a clinic space.
What to Expect:
Initial Consultation – We’ll talk through your child’s background, needs, and priorities, either online or in person.
Assessment Phase – Depending on your goals, we may use standardised assessments, play-based observation, and parent/teacher input.
Therapy Plan – You’ll receive clear, practical recommendations tailored to your child’s daily life.
Therapy Sessions – Sessions are typically weekly, blending occupational therapy interventions, sensory awareness, play, and regulation approaches.
Review & Next Steps – Progress is reviewed regularly, with guidance for home and school.
