My name is Cate, and I work as a counsellor here in Christchurch. I offer Individual counselling for all life issues such as grief, anxiety and depression, trauma, support for living with chronic health issues, relationship issues and all the things that make life challenging at times. I am an ally for those identifying as LGBTQAI. l I work both face to face and online (within New Zealand).

When we pay attention to our direct experience, we may find that there is a lot going on that we don’t normally notice. Uncomfortable feelings, sensations and emotions which we are conditioned to avoid carry wisdom if we learn how to listen. Attending to what is happening right here and now gives our feelings the opportunity to unfold, reveal, express and move in whatever way they need to.
