This right here is your caregiver consultation survival guide, tied in a neat little bow.
Let me guess: you love your Play Therapy sessions, but freeze when it’s time to explain it all to caregivers? I know because I’ve been there too, boo. We all have.
Sure, caregiver consultations can be one of the most meaningful parts of our work…but they can also be the toughest:
How do you explain themes without stumbling or sounding overly clinical?
How do you help parents understand their child's behaviour through a new lens?
How do you have difficult conversations with compassion and confidence?
And how do you do all of that without spending hours creating handouts, forms, and resources from scratch?
✨ Pops out from behind a bop bag ✨
Here’s how: with My Big Caregiver Consultation Pack!
This bundle was created to make caregiver consultations feel less scary and far more impactful. Inside you'll find a collection of consultation tools, parent handouts, psychoeducation resources, intake and update forms, communication scripts, cheat sheets, and practical guides designed to help you support the adults supporting the child.

Less paperwork. More play. Yes please.
While I love to nerd out on business admin, I get that it’s not everyone’s jam. And seriously, who becomes a therapist because they want to spend all day drowning in paperwork and chasing up missed appointments?
Yet somehow, you find yourself on a Friday afternoon doing exactly those things. Gah!
Hands you a big cup of your favourite beverage and ushers you to the closest comfy chair.
Relax, my friend. And let My Big Private Practice Pack melt all your pain away.
I've taken all of the forms, templates, systems, and resources I've developed over years of building and running a Play Therapy practice and packaged them into one BIIIIIIG bundle. Because I want to save you hours of work, decision fatigue, and late-night ChatGPTing.
So say ba-bye to wondering:
"What am I even going to say in that parent intake on Tuesday?!”
"Do I need a cancellation policy?"
"How should I reply to this overwhelmed parent?”
"How the heck do I translate that whirlwind session into clinical notes?!”
Inside you'll find a treasure chest of practical ready-to-download resources designed to help you create a professional, organised, and streamlined practice without having to build everything from scratch.
Whether you're just starting out or finally getting around to sorting the admin you've been avoiding for the last three years (no judgement!), this pack will help you spend less time buried in paperwork and more time doing the work you actually love.
Because (does dramatic spin in tutu)…your energy belongs in the playroom, not in a Word document at 11pm.
✨WHAT’S INSIDE YOUR PACK✨
✓Intake Forms and Editable Templates
✓ Update Forms and Editable Templates
✓ Progress Note Editable Templates, How-To Guides, and Full Case Note Examples
✓ Therapy Report Forms and Editable Templates

We both know Play Therapy isn’t just about sitting on tiny chairs and having pretend tea parties (even if we sometimes wish it was).
✨ Speaking of which: appears in a kid-sized apron and hands you a plastic cupcake with sprinkles…✨
Whether you're newly qualified or years into practice, there are moments when you wish your supervisor was in the room with you:
Someone to help you make sense of a tricky theme…
Talk through a case conceptualisation…
Offer ideas for responding in session…
Remind you that yes, this stage of therapy is completely normal…
And gently encourage you to engage in reflective practice before therapist-you becomes completely burnt out.
While training gives us the foundations, our growth as Play Therapists happens in the playroom, in supervision, through reflection, and through continually deepening our understanding of children and ourselves.
That's why I've created My Big Play Therapy Clinical Skills Pack!
Inside you'll find a collection of practical, ready-to-download resources designed to support your clinical thinking, strengthen your therapeutic skills, and support your ongoing professional development. From case conceptualisation guides, session scripts, themes and stages resources, and reflective practice tools, to therapist self-care guides and clinical cheat sheets, these resources are designed to help you feel more confident, capable, and grounded in your work.
Because here’s the thing–takes dramatic sip from tiny teacup–the work you do matters. But so does the person doing it. That’s you, by the way…I’m talking about you.
So. No more scrambling through training notes, no more late-night Googling or ChatGPTing, and no more wondering whether everyone else somehow knows something you don't. Case closed. Pack open.
✨WHAT’S INSIDE YOUR PACK✨
✓ Case Conceptualisation Workbook (fillable pdf and printable versions)
✓ Play Therapy Skills Cheat Sheets (example)
✓ Play Therapy Themes & Stages Cheat Sheets
✓ Reflective Practice, Supervision & Self-Care Journals

Have you noticed your clients are seriously struggling at school these days?
As Play Therapists, we spend a tonne of time helping children and supporting caregivers. And then there's school:

The place where teachers are often doing their absolute best with limited time, limited resources, and twenty-seven other children needing their attention…

But never fear because–flies past on a broomstick and points at this section–My Big Play Therapy School Support Pack is here!

Keep finding "just one more thing" you didn’t know you needed?
Pulls back the sparkly curtain at the back of the shop and welcomes you into a cosy little room lined floor-to-ceiling with pastel colour-coded resources and a very inviting armchair in the corner…
If you've ever spent hours creating a form, writing a parent handout, building a consultation resource, formatting a progress note template, designing a teacher handout, or hunting through seventeen different folders trying to find that one resource you know you made somewhere…then this pack is for you.
My Gigantic Play Therapy Whole Shop Pack gives you access to every resource currently in the shop (that’s over 80 items!), plus all new resources added until 30 June 2027. You can access the pack forever.
That means instead of trying to work out which bundle has what, or whether you'll need that resource in six months' time, you can simply settle into the comfy chair and know you've got the lot.

This handy child play therapy resource clearly explains child development for 5-6 year olds, and is an essential addition to any mental health professional’s toolkit.
Whether you're a play therapist, child counsellor, therapist, psychologist or social worker, this easy and clear one-page reference covers all areas of child development: physical, cognitive and learning, emotional, social and play.
Keep it handy as a quick reference to build your skills – and to help caregivers understand and support their child.
Note that these are common developmental milestones for neurotypical children. Consider incorporating psychoeducation for parents that focuses on highlighting their child's individual strengths, interests, and abilities.
