ABOUT ME
Trin McNulty
M. Couns. Dip. Couns. Adv. Cert. Play Therapy
Hello and welcome. My name is Trin and I am a registered clinical counsellor (PACFA) and a registered play therapist (APTA).
​
If you have come to this website, chances are that you have concerns for your child. This is a difficult and uncomfortable place to be. Hopefully, I can offer you a safe place to share your concerns and offer support whilst your family navigates a difficult time.
I’m passionate about working with children, with a strengths based approach, and strive to consistently provide them with a safe, respectful and supportive environment to unpack the issues that have brought them to counselling.
Play therapy (child centered) is a gentle way to support children to unlock their potential to work through struggles and to grow. When working with children I believe that working closely with caregivers is vital for better outcomes. For more information on Play Therapy please see the Association 4 Play Therapy- US.
