Counselling Nelson NZ

Hi. I offer professional counselling for adults and adolescents as well as play therapy for children.

With over 30 years in the health sector, I bring a calm, compassionate and relationship-based approach focused on your wellbeing.

People come to counselling for many reasons - stress, anxiety, grief and loss, depression, realtionship difficulties, life changes, trauma (including PTSD), parenting issues, or feeling emotionally overwhelmed.
I offer a safe, confidential space where we can explore and work towards meangingful change.

 
My therapeutic practice is grounded in psychotherapeutic principles, integrating modalities to support emotional healing and personal growth. I view each client as unique, drawing on approaches such as attachement theory, person-centred theory, solution-focused theory and mindfulness to foster insight, resilience and lasting change.

I have an extensive background working with Perinatal Support Nelson, working as both a counsellor and support worker. In my work with mother's and babies (0-2), I use an attachment framework that supports connection, safety and secure bonding. 
Together, we focus on strengthening the parent-child relationship and suporting the foundations of family wellbeing.

I hold a Bachelor of Applied Social Science (Counselling) and I'm a Registered Memeber of New Zealand of Counsellors (NZAC).
I am a Registered Circle of Security Parenting Facilitator (TM) and trained in the CIrcle of Security (COS) attachement model.

• Anxiety
