Little Forest Therapies provides support for 5-25 year olds experiencing issues surrounding anxiety, coping skills, emotional regulation and neurodivergence. We provide a friendly, non-judgemental and activity-based alternative to traditional talking therapy.

Shan Loo from Little Forest Therapies offers her services in this field and additional outdoor therapy will be available on set days.
Therapy is creative and based upon the young person’s interests, motivations and family’s shared goals and values.
Shan works heavily with the parents of her younger clients, utilising a family-systems approach to foster sustainable change and empower families. Sessions often include parents, if agreed upon, and are attachment-focussed.
Interventions vary according to patient needs, however may include:

• life skills;
• social skills;
• anxiety management strategies;
• ADHD management strategies; and
• fostering positive family dynamics.

Shan is credentialed to provide ADOS-2 assessments for children-adults. In her practice, Shan utilises concepts of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Theraplay®, CBT, motivational interviewing and solutions-focused therapy.
Shan graduated from her Masters of Occupational Therapy Studies in 2019, and has previously worked in early intervention autism services and child and youth mental health. In her spare time she enjoys spending time with her young family and dog.
