Suzi Wallis

Kia ora, I’m Suzi Wallis (she/her)

Since 2002, I’ve supported people to create meaningful, lasting change in their lives and relationships. My approach is practical, collaborative, and focused on helping you develop the skills, insights, and strategies needed to achieve the outcomes you want, including empowerment and peace.

Whether you’re facing relationship challenges, communication difficulties, loss/grief, unexpected or expected life transitions, or personal struggles, we’ll work together at a pace that feels right for you. If exploring past experiences would be helpful, we’ll do so thoughtfully and respectfully, with an eye toward creating positive change in the present.

Clients usually leave sessions with practical tools and ideas to work with between appointments, helping counselling translate into real-life progress.

Areas of Speciality

• Communication skills and relationship strengthening
• Conflict management
• Relationships of all genders and relationship structures, including ethical non-monogamy

I also work with a wide range of other personal, family, and life challenges.

I work with individuals and couples aged 16 years and over, offering in-person counselling in Ellerslie, Auckland.
