Counselling Kawerau - Therapy Kawerau

Hi, my name is Yvette.

Making the first contact to talk with someone can often be a daunting and overwhelming experience.
I can assure you that once you take that step you will feel a sense of relief, vulnerability, but empowered too.

Kia ora! My name is Carien (kind of pronounced as "Kha-rene"). I offer a compassionate, holistic approach combining 30 years of experience in psychology, education, guidance and counselling. I use an integrative scientific approach to find a unique and individual pathway for each client.

Sarel – Registered Counsellor in Tauranga offering face-to-face support for trauma, relationship and sexual abuse, career and general mental health concerns. Using CBT, Person-Centred and Narrative Therapy, alongside Māori supervision and Te Whare Tapa Whā, Sarel provides a safe, welcoming space to explore emotions, build resilience, and support your journey toward healing and personal growth.

I’m a qualified counsellor dedicated to helping people navigate life’s challenges & move toward meaningful, positive change.I offer a safe, confidential, & non-judgemental space where you can begin to explore & process the difficult emotions you may be experiencing. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply in need of someone to talk to, I’m here to listen & support you.

In life we can all have times that are more challenging and painful than others and counselling can provide a safe space to work through those seasons.

I am a Counsellor and Couples Therapist who is committed to providing that safe and confidential environment where people can feel heard and validated while working through their pain and struggles without judgement.

I believe that realistic choice-making can support your counselling, and I consider it a privilege to journey with you in a safe and confidential environment to process what can be difficult emotions. I help people with Anxiety/Depression, Body image, Burnout, Career guidance, Feeling “lost”, Panic attacks, Relationships, Stress

Hard time quietening your mind? I help overthinkers, people pleasers, and ADHDers who look fine on the outside but feel quietly exhausted underneath. With me, you get a warm, unhurried space to slow down, breathe, and stop performing. Together, we'll move toward your most authentic self – the one who sets boundaries, trusts their gut, and stops apologising for taking up space. We’ll help you get back to living fully and compassionately instead of feeling like you’re just surviving.
