Description
Hello, I’m Sarah — thanks for being here!
I’m currently training as a play therapist in the UK, working towards my diploma, and I’ve set up this space to share the real-life journey of becoming a therapist.
From essays and placements to supervision and the emotional ups and downs, I’ll be sharing honest reflections along the way.
The Trainee Play Therapist Diaries is for anyone training, thinking about training, or simply curious about the world of play therapy.
You’re very welcome here.
