About

Georgina Mackenzie is a Masters-trained and registered Play Therapist based in Anglesea, Victoria. She works with children and families through Humanistic Play Therapy, Filial Therapy, Sandtray Therapy, and Learn To Play interventions. Her therapeutic approach draws on neuroscience, attachment theory, and developmental psychology to meet each child at their emotional and developmental level.

Georgina grew up on Victoria’s Surf Coast and now lives in Anglesea with her husband and daughter. Alongside her therapeutic work, she is also a potter and painter. Her creative background shapes her sensitivity to the symbolic, expressive, and relational nature of play, where meaning and healing often emerge beyond words.

With prior studies in psychology and a lifelong interest in the arts, Georgina was drawn to the systemic and intergenerational healing that unfolds through play therapy and family work. She believes meaningful change occurs when the whole family system is supported with understanding, compassion, and practical tools for connection.

Her approach is neurodiversity-affirming, trauma-informed, and centred on the idea that when a child’s inner world is met with empathy and consistency, healing naturally follows.
