What is counselling?
Counselling falls under the umbrella term ‘talking therapies’ and allows people to discuss their problems and any difficult feelings they encounter in a safe, confidential environment. The term can mean different things to different people, but in general it is a process people seek when they want to change something in their lives or simply explore their thoughts and feelings in more depth.

Hi, my name is David. I'm a counsellor and coach based in Auckland.
I often meet with people at a cafe to offer counselling and coaching in a relaxed and informal setting.

Let me help you make your problems a thing of the past, in a safe, confidentially, and often fun environment!
