Rebekah | Counsellor

Introduction

Kia ora, my name is Rebekah, I'm 31 and I am a qualified counsellor based in Christchurch. I offer in-person sessions in Christchurch and online counselling throughout New Zealand, working with a vast range of ages and presenting challenges.

I strive to provide an environment that feels safe, welcoming and not too serious where our sessions not only consist of exploring your issue at depth, but also allow for moments of humour and genuine connection to naturally emerge alongside our work. I aim to provide not only tools, but also a trusting client/counsellor relationship that in itself can also facilitate growth.

Having been to counselling myself, I know how it feels to sit in the clients chair. This enhances my practice where I can meet my clients with a lived understanding of the vulnerability and emotional honesty required. I also have experience counselling in a highschool, and experience working with whānau and rangatahi within a care and protection setting.

I have a flexible schedule, including some after hours online availability. A free 15 minute phone or video call is also available if you would like to see whether I am the right fit for you. I look forward to hearing from you!

If you want to know more or make an appointment, feel free to contact me.

Online sessions are conducted via a secure online platform. I will email you a link prior to our session.

Most common issues I support people with:

Relational work - Research shows that it is the therapeutic relationship that dictates whether therapy is a success or not. I prioritise creating a safe, attuned, and collaborative therapeutic relationship where you will feel genuinely seen and understood. I also pay close attention to patterns that show up between us, and use the relationship itself as a vehicle for insight, repair, and change.

Lived Experience - I bring a lived understanding of the vulnerability and emotional honesty that counselling requires. This informs a compassionate, non-judgemental approach where I won't attempt to "fix” you, but instead support you to understand yourself with greater clarity.

Trauma-informed practice - I work in a trauma-informed way, recognising how early relational experiences, attachment wounds, and chronic stress can shape emotional regulation, self-concept, and relationships. Ensuring accurate pacing of sessions, emphasizing safety, nervous system regulation, and your autonomy. This allows you to explore difficult experiences without becoming overwhelmed or retraumatised.
