Rooted in Science. Delivered with Heart.
A New Place for Healing, Connection & Growth.
HAPii – the Healing and Play Institute Ireland – is a private, independent child and family healing institute grounded in over two decades of clinical practice, research, and advocacy.
We support children, parents, foster carers, and professionals to build safer, stronger relationships through attachment-informed, play-based, and trauma-responsive work.
Why HAPii ?
HAPii was born from a clear need.
As major reform reshapes child and family services in Ireland, we wanted to protect what matters most:
independence
clinical integrity
the child’s voice
relational, not bureaucratic, practice
HAPii offers practical guidance, emotional insight, and a safe space to grow — for you, and for the children you care for.
HAPii allows us to continue working in the way we love - creatively, therapeutically, and relationally - while offering families and professionals a place of genuine healing, learning, and support.
We equip the people who hold children through their hardest moments.
Whether you're a foster carer, parent, therapist, or frontline professional - HAPii gives you the tools to connect, co-regulate, and heal.
