Counselling

If life isn’t going the way you hoped and/or you’re feeling stuck, distressed, or overwhelmed, you don’t have to navigate it alone.

Together we will look at your challenges as things you are experiencing—not who you are.

Our conversations will separate your identity from the challenges you’re facing, rekindle hope, and explore the future you want to build. We will clarify where you want to go and unpack what’s holding you back, without any pressure – because life is complicated enough without adding a deadline to feeling better.

You don’t even have to know where to start—bringing yourself (and those messy thoughts) is more than enough.

Specialist areas:

• LGBTIAQ+, Rainbow relationships and issues
• Disordered eating and eating issues
• Working with adolescents and students in tertiary study

Other areas I can support you with:

• Anxiety & panic
• Depression
• Substance use (Drugs & alcohol)
• Grief
• Life changes
• Relationships
• Stress
• Trauma/PTSD
• Work related issues

If you are unsure if I can help, please don’t hesitate to contact me and we can discuss your options.

Supervision

Alongside my counselling practice, I offer supervision to fellow mental health practitioners. I view supervision as a supportive, reflective space to explore your work, look at its impact on your well-being, and bounce ideas around. My Supervision practice is informed by narrative and social constructionist views of the world.

Together, we’ll unpack the theories, values, and ethics that drive your practice to open up new pathways forward and celebrate the small wins. I look forward to partnering with you to support your vision, your growth, and your hauora (wellbeing) in this deeply rewarding (and occasionally wild) career we have chosen.
