Ariel Reyneke

I am a registered Clinical Psychologist on the New Zealand Psychologist’s Board (NZPB) and a member of the New Zealand Psychological Society (NZPS).

I obtained my training in South Africa, and thereafter have worked in hospital and forensic settings there and in New Zealand. I was trained and resonate very much with psychodynamic thinking, and view presenting issues as rooted in both the conscious and the unconscious. I am also trained in a variety of therapeutic modalities and techniques, and integrate these in a considered manner tailored to individual needs. I am also trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR).

I work with late adolescence and adults with a variety of presenting issues, including:

• interpersonal/relational issues
• mood-related concerns
• trauma and trauma-related issues
• grief and bereavement
• and general adjustment concerns

My belief is that therapy is a mutual and collaborative discovery of the inherent strengths and resiliency that all clients possess, with the therapeutic journey serving as a guide to shine light on these.
