Frequently Asked Question

Therapy at Tender Tales is a gentle, child-centred process. It is not about fixing a child or making behaviours disappear quickly. It focuses on understanding emotions, building trust, and helping children and families make sense of what lies beneath behaviours, at a pace that feels safe and respectful.
