Averil Lagerman

I have some limited availability for new individual clients (closed to new couples). To enquire, please email me with your day, time, and frequency preferences for sessions, and topics you are seeking support for (e.g. “I am looking for fortnightly sessions on Tuesdays or Fridays between 1pm-4pm for support with anxiety.”). Visit my personal website for more info about me and my availability.

Hi, I’m Averil. I’m an experienced, registered counsellor in private practice in Birkenhead on the North Shore, Auckland. 

I work with adults (18+) of all ages, and particularly enjoy working with those in their 20s – 30s as well as the young-at-heart. If you’re having trouble with anxiety, struggling with self-worth or relationships, or in the process of making decisions and life changes, I’m here to help you figure it out.

I’m an action-oriented therapist, so I don’t only listen, I send clients home with tools and techniques to use between sessions.

For individuals I offer both short-term counselling for specific issues, and longer-term therapy for deeper insight into your past and present, personal growth and change.

Being a human isn’t easy, but there are ways to make it smoother, happier, and more fulfilling. With compassion, commitment, and a little humour, let’s work through the issues you are facing now and build you up to feel confident in your future.
