WELCOME
We are a small, child focused therapeutic group wanting to grow our business within the rural communities of Queensland by bringing much needed social/emotional support services to these areas. We currently offer child-centered counselling, via a qualified therapist, with experience in person-centered approaches and play therapy.
We hope to one day bring further qualified professionals to these areas as well.

Samantha Comiskey
Coming from a regional/rural community, Samantha, has always had the desire to relocate with her family back to the countryside and provide outreach services to communities that struggle to receive/retain much needed support.
Samantha has worked previously as a Registered Play Therapist, alongside children accessing NDIS and various community stakeholders/providers. Also, having come from a family intervention background, Samantha has experience supporting parents, victims and perpetrators work towards brighter futures by taking a person-centered and holistic approach.
Samantha is continually expanding her knowledge of person-centered approaches and evidence-based practice through further education. She looks forward to bringing her knowledge and experience to the Central Highlands and Central Queensland Regions.
