Kriti Soni

Counsellor

I am a young, energetic, skilled, and qualified counsellor and hold a full membership with the New Zealand Association of Counsellor. I hold a Postgraduate Diploma of Counselling from University of Auckland and a Bachelors and Master’s degree in Applied Psychology from two universities in India.

 

Counselling Approach

I provide individual therapy to young people and adults. I would love to support you in flourishing and living your best life by helping you attune to your feelings, body and connect you with the wisdom and capacity to heal that is already within you. My approach is integrative, combining a range of skills, experience and modalities.

I work from a holistic worldview. I keep in mind that my clients are from different cultures, religions, backgrounds and beliefs. To cater to your complex needs, I need to use an approach tailor-made to you. To ensure I provide effective therapy I use a pluralistic approach, which is held in the larger nest of person-centred and trauma-informed therapy.

 

Counselling Experience

I have had a wide breadth of experience in working with clients from various backgrounds in different settings both in New Zealand and in India.
