Hi there, I'm Chloe
FOUNDER |
SYNCHRONY CHILD COUNSELLING
I am a child and teen counsellor with over 15 years of experience working with young people and families. I specialise exclusively in Child-Centred Play Therapy for children aged 3 to 14 years.
​
​​Before founding Synchrony Child Counselling, I was a Guidance Officer at a large Gold Coast school. As the school counsellor, I supported thousands of students, families, and staff, often with complex presenting issues and from challenging backgrounds. ​I have a Master of Education in Guidance and Counselling and hold the highest registration with the Australian Counselling Association. I trained in Child-Centred Play Therapy under the esteemed Dr Brenna Hicks (USA) - a leader in the world of play therapy. (Dr Hicks' Play Therapy Parenting podcast is a fantastic resource for caregivers wanting to use the principles of play therapy in their home.)
PASSION & PURPOSE
I have always been drawn to working with young people. My father was a school music teacher and had this special way of making all young people - especially the 'challenging kids' - feel seen, heard and important. He was patient, kind and good-humoured, and from him, I learned the importance and the art of connecting with kids. When I discovered Play Therapy, I knew I had found my calling. I feel grateful and privileged to create meaningful connections and do transformational work with kids through Child-Centred Play Therapy.
Hope and transformation for children and their families
