Sukriti Sabharwal, Mpsych, NZAC Registered Counsellor

Support for Anxiety, Overwhelm, Relationships and Family Stress

For over a decade in schools and private practice, I’ve walked alongside children, adolescents, and young adults, as well as parents, families, and educators, through life’s toughest hurdles. Whether it’s the tearful eight‑year‑old wrestling with separation anxiety, the teen weighed down by social pressures, the young adult navigating their first workplace relationship, or the parent and teacher seeking harmony in a child’s learning journey, I’m here to help you find clarity, calm, and confidence. My style is warm, culturally attuned, and always focused on helping you move forward with confidence.

With a background in Child psychology and Counselling and 10+ years’ experience working as guidance counsellor, I work with children, teens, young adults, and families using CBT, mindful play, and relational tools. Every session is tailored, compassionate, and focused – I leave no stone unturned in helping you grow, heal, and thrive.

I celebrate every breakthrough from the child who gains playground confidence, to the teen rebuilding trust at home, to the young adult finding their voice in relationships. If you’re ready for compassionate expertise, practical tools, and a partner who truly listens, book a free 15‑minute consultation, and let’s turn today’s challenges into tomorrow’s growth

Q Specialties and Expertise

I help with stress, anxiety, self-doubt, life transitions, and relationship challenges. A typical plan starts with clarifying your goals and identifying patterns that hold you back. We'll use CBT, mindfulness, and strengths-based tools to help you feel more grounded, confident, and in control.

Some sessions are reflective, others more practical, depending on what you need that day. We might unpack thought patterns, explore what grounds you, or map out small, doable steps. The goal is always the same: to help you feel clearer, calmer, and more in control of your life.

I offer sessions both in-person (yes, the chair's comfy!) and online for flexibility.
