Kia Ora!
Hi, I’m Leticia. I know life can feel overwhelming at times, and reaching out for support is a courageous and empowering step.
With over 20 years of experience in Human Resources, Wellbeing, and Counselling, I’ve supported individuals through career changes, burnout, grief, stress, and deep personal transformations. I hold a degree in Psychology (Brazil) and am a Professional Member of the New Zealand Association of Counsellors (NZAC). I’m also a certified Mental Health Coach through Prekure, with a strong interest in how small, sustainable lifestyle shifts can lead to meaningful improvements in mental health and overall wellbeing.
My approach blends evidence-based therapies—such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)—with practical coaching tools and a mindset-oriented lens. It’s gentle, collaborative, and tailored to meet you where you are.
What Guides My Practice
I’m inspired by Carl Jung’s words:
“Learn your theories as well as you can, but when you touch a human soul, be just another human soul.”
To me, this serves as a reminder that while knowledge and techniques are valuable, true healing comes from simply being present, human to human. My goal is to create a space where you feel understood, supported, and empowered to grow.
Remember, even small changes can lead to meaningful transformation. Together, we’ll explore the path that feels right for you—one that helps you move forward with clarity and confidence.
If this feels like the right support for you, you can message me directly or visit Tweaks to Wellness to schedule a free initial consultation. We’ll discuss your goals and explore how I can best support you.
