Sharon du Preez | Counselling & Life coaching, Benestar EAP provider

Introduction

My name is Sharon. I was born in South Africa and immigrated to New Zealand in 2008 with my husband and two children. We lived in Wellington for 8 years before relocating to Blenheim. 

I obtained a degree in psychological counselling from a university in South Africa.  After moving to New Zealand, I furthered my official education with a diploma in Life Coaching.  I have also read countless books and done tons of research as well as spending two years receiving regular counselling/coaching myself in order to grow myself as a counsellor. 

During that time, I wrote a course for kids that taught them how to be more resilient and implemented it in several schools. I have been counselling couples, adults and children under 12 since 2012 and thus have many hours of experience.

I now run my own practice in Blenheim where I have a counselling office and a fully equipped play-based counselling room for children.
