Child Play Therapy Accessible from Pringle Bay
Specialist Support for Pringle Bay Families
Pringle Bay is one of the Western Cape’s most cherished small coastal villages — an intimate, nature-rich community where many families have chosen to settle. It is also a community that has historically had very limited access to specialist child mental health services.
For families in Pringle Bay whose children are struggling emotionally, behaviourally, or socially, Sulene Swanepoel’s play therapy practice in Hermanus offers a manageable journey to genuinely specialist support.
Why Specialist Play Therapy Matters
There is a meaningful difference between a general psychologist who offers play therapy as one of many services, and a play therapist whose entire practice is built around this specific discipline. Sulene’s training through The Centre for Play Therapy and Training, her background in education, and her dedicated focus on children’s emotional wellbeing means that Pringle Bay families have access to specialist support that was not previously available locally.
What Sulene Can Help With
- Childhood anxiety, worry, and fear
- Trauma and bereavement
- Behavioural challenges and emotional dysregulation
- Family transitions and adjustment difficulties
- School struggles — emotional, social, or academic
- Building confidence and resilience
