About Me

Ko wai au?

I have a Bachelor of Counselling. I adapt my approach to best suit your experiences, drawing on a range of person-centred and strengths-based approaches. Your beliefs, values and culture will be respected. We will look at the concerns you are noticing and the effects they are having in your life, and collaborate to identify pathways forwards that fit with your strengths and preferences.

I have worked with men and women (individually), teens through to post-retirement, who are processing and growing through trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, questions of identity, times of change and transition, decision making, stress and overwhelm, low self-confidence, separation and other family experiences.

Sometimes clients just want space to hear their own thoughts with someone who is interested and supportive. Sometimes clients are working on goals and self improvement. The choices are all yours.

I follow the requirements of the NZCCA and NZAC Codes of Ethics to provide you with professional, Tiriti informed and ethical counselling services. I attend regular supervision sessions with a professional supervisor to ensure best practice.

Records are confidential and secure. Confidentiality is assured, although I will discuss with you any limitations of this, including where there is a concern for the safety of yourself or someone you know.

Please note I am not a couples counsellor.
