Nathanael Dei Gratia Counselling

About Me

Counselling is a space just for you — somewhere you can slow down, feel heard, and talk about what’s really going on in your life.

You might come with something that feels heavy, confusing, or stuck. Or you might simply want space to reflect, grow, and move toward the life you want. Wherever you’re at, we can explore it together.

I aim to offer a safe, confidential, and down-to-earth space where you can bring both the parts you’re struggling with and the parts you’re hopeful about. Together, we can make sense of things, find new perspectives, and begin to shape a way forward that feels right for you.

What I Can Help With

I work with people navigating things like:

• Neurodiversity (ADHD, ASD, Dyslexia, Dyspraxia
• Parenting — especially with neurodiverse children
• Anxiety, stress, and feeling overwhelmed
• Low mood or depression
• Anger and emotional ups and downs
• Trauma and difficult past experiences
• Grief and loss
• Relationship challenges and conflict
• Life changes and transitions
• Addiction
• Questions around spirituality, including spiritual harm or religious trauma
• Exploring identity, including male identity

How I Work

At the heart of my work is relationship — creating a space where you feel comfortable being yourself, without judgement.

I take a client-centred approach, which means we work together in a way that fits you. There’s no one-size-fits-all. I draw on a range of approaches depending on what’s helpful, including Narrative Therapy, ACT, Solution-Focused Therapy, mindfulness, grounding techniques, and Motivational Interviewing.

A Bit About Me

I’m a Provisional Member of NZAC and hold a Bachelor of Counselling from WelTec. Over the past for years, I’ve worked with people across a wide range of experiences, particularly trauma, grief and loss, anxiety, and life changes.

I’m especially interested in working across cultures and with neurodiverse individuals and families.

I also bring my own lived experience into this work. I’m ADHD, dyslexic, and dyspraxic, and I parent a neurodiverse child. I understand — personally as well as professionally — some of the challenges, complexities, and strengths that come with neurodiversity. You won’t need to explain everything from scratch here.
