Jem Peralta

Mental Health & Counselling

Kia Ora!

My name is Jem and I’m a counsellor in Windy Wellington. I primarily work online, but have a little office for in-person sessions every Friday at Level 2/150 Featherston St.

I offer a confidential, supportive, non-judgmental space to help you navigate what is troubling you. 
Trained in a variety of counselling styles, I work alongside you to figure out what you would potentially benefit the most from and give you a range of options to pick from. 

My Areas of particular focus include:

  • depression
  • anxieties
  • trauma
  • grief
  • identity
  • gender/sexual identity
  • LGBTQI+
  • life transitions
  • existential or spiritual crises
  • personality disorders
  • emotional regulation

I do free 15 Minute Consultations via phone call, to help you see if I am the correct practitioner for you (I know finding a counsellor that suits you can sometimes be stressful!)
