Counselling Upper Hutt - Hutt Valley
My name is Athena. You're welcome for counselling & relationship counselling in Upper Hutt.
By calling myself a Heart and Mind coach, I am saying that my goal is to bring more love and more consciousness into my own and other peoples lives!
Working together you will discover more about yourself and why you act and feel in a certain way. You will become more aware of your feelings and where they come from, enabling you to manage them better in any situation. As a result there is a feeling of being free to relax about who you really are, or want to be. You will live your life with more energy. You will be able to balance your feelings, health and purpose.
I work with people from all walks of life; from students to executives. They all come to me for a variety of reasons: because they are sad or stressed or have reached a crisis in life. Whatever the reason you are looking to create change. Our sessions are often dynamic and at times I will challenge you to look at situations in a different light. By uniting our efforts, many of my clients have managed to find the real cause for their issues. They tell me they have conquered their worries, improved their relationships and are feeling more confident about their performance at work and in life. How wonderful is that?!?
People don't always come to me because they are in crisis. Let me use an analogy : think of me as a book. A resource. For instance, parents contact me to ask if I can help their young people (children) with life. The subject of concern might be bullying, it could be anxiety, it could be a medical event.
As an outsider I can say things that friends or family might be afraid to say for fear of hurting a loved one. I can offer ideas and perspectives that might never have been thought about before. I put them out as ideas that can be taken or left with no strings attached. But I am better than a book because I have an automatically self-adapting user interface! I will naturally adjust to those I'm sitting with to try and offer the most relevant approach! There :). The most modern and up-to-date technology available: a real human with heart and humour.
Going to a counsellor or coach doesn't have to mean you've got a big problem. It can be like picking up a book to get some ideas and feel stimulated, even excited, about doing things better.
