Testimonials

“You were heaven sent and I can’t thank you enough for everything you’ve done for my little one and my family. We first met you, and my little one was sad, afraid, and heartbroken. But now, he is again a happy, confident, loving boy and that is all because of you".

Mother of a 5 year old boy.

"Watching my son change his attitude and be able to control his emotions was absolutely priceless! He's now able to understand, process and react in a healthy way. My happy boy was so lucky to have Play Therapy Playce, and Samira next to him, giving him the love, support, and help he needed to go through the hard times".
