Welcome to Mangrove Integrated

🌿Our Mission 🌿

At Mangrove Integrated, our mission is to empower children and families through integrative, neurodevelopmental play-based interventions that nurture connection, resilience, and growth.


We help children discover their strengths by supporting the developmental systems that shape how they move, learn, and connect with the world. By meeting each child where they are, we uncover the roots beneath their challenges and help them grow with confidence, joy, and a sense of belonging.


Because when we strengthen what lies beneath, we support everything above.

🌿Our Approach🌿

We understand that child development, movement, sensory processing, and emotional integration are not separate  — but interconnected pathways that shape how children learn, relate, and thrive.


Our approach is grounded in neuroscience, enriched by play, and guided by compassion. We draw on evidence-based interventions to gently support children and their families in navigating challenges  while building on their strengths.


We work in close collaboration with families, educators, and fellow therapists — because lasting change grows through shared insight, consistent support, and meaningful connection.

Hello

Hi, I'm Leigh-Anne Davies, a developmental therapist and the founder of Mangrove Integrated, a unique therapeutic practice grounded in sensory-motor systems, developmental play and the power of neuroplasticity. 


With over 25 years of working in therapeutic, educational, and clinical settings, I bring a wealth of experience and a whole lot of gentleness. I believe every child deserves foundational support that honours their unique sensory and neurodevelopmental profile.


I earned my PhD in Psychology with a special focus on the developmental trajectories of children diagnosed with Foetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD). As a qualified Play Therapist I bring a gentle, play-based perspective to any clinical practice—championing connection, confidence, and resilience in every child. I am also an Auditory Integration Practitioner and integrate various methodologies and interventions to create an individualised support intervention. 


Awareness is essential in building strong early, foundations, I offer workshops and talks to parent groups, schools and organisations on early childhood development and effective play-based strategies to promote lasting changes. 


My goal is to help children flourish and families feel empowered on their journey. 


A Chartered Member of the British Psychological Society (CPsychol) I am committed to BPS Code of Ethics and Conduct 


“Maybe you are searching among the branches for what only appears in the roots.”
