THERAPEUTIC PLAY SERVICES
ABOUT ME
My name is Catriona Irvine - but everyone calls me Cat. I qualified as a Play Therapist in 2012 and went on to do a Masters in play therapy looking at the symbolic language children use while playing. I work in several schools and run a private practice in Bristol helping to build stronger, more resilient kids who I hope go on to rule the world!
