I’m Rain and I work with young children, neurodivergent kids and adults, families navigating big feelings, and parents ready to look at the whole picture.

The work here is devoted to re-imagining the image of the child — within and without — and is shaped by the understanding that what we carry does not begin with us alone.

Children and adults move within families, places, systems and rhythms that shape how we feel, respond, and make sense of the world. When strong feelings or behaviours arise, they are often expressions of these conditions — ways of responding, adapting, and surviving — rather than signs that something is wrong.

The work here is not about correction or control.

It is about relationship.

About gently coming back into connection — with self, with others, and with the wider living world — rather than asking anyone to be different from who they are.

This is slower work. It asks for curiosity, consent, and a willingness to listen closely.

Is this for you?

You sense something deeper is happening beneath the behavior.

You're willing to look at the whole picture, not just your child.

Moving from "what's wrong?" to "what's being communicated?" feels like relief.

Not the right fit if you're looking for behavior strategies or a quick fix.

Let's Talk

  • "Rain works in a child-led way where each individual is afforded opportunities for dignity and agency. She offers a gentle and safe space where children can be seen and heard, using the language that comes naturally to them; the language of play and creativity."

    - Dr Carla Van Laar, Convenor of PACFA’s College of Creative and Experiential Therapies (CCET)

  • "We have worked with several therapists over the past 7 years and we have never met any that has come close to Rain in terms of the support she has offered - which has led to amazing progress for my child. The Art Therapy industry is lucky to have Rain and it is my belief that the world would be a much better place if there were more therapists like Rain."

    — Rebecca

  • "We have been engaged with Rain’s services since late 2023 and have consistently found her practice to be ethical, respectful, and, in many ways, life-changing. I was drawn to Rain’s holistic approach to therapy as it aligned closely with my own values and provided a safe space to explore my parenting styles, relationship barriers, and life goals, while also supporting my child to develop self-confidence, manage anxieties and stressors and celebrate their inner self."

    — Alison
