Depression counselling Dunedin

Hi, I am a registered counsellor with Dapaanz, also accredited clinical supervisor.

Since 1996, I’ve helped my clients break through the obstacles that seem to be holding them back in life.

I specialise in providing a wide range of effective therapeutic techniques for children and adolescents, adults and families.

I am passionate about the work I do and I am committed in providing beneficial therapy for clients affected by mental health related issues such as depression, anxiety, stress, trauma and grief.

Solution focused therapy, CBT and Mindfulness are some of the therapies, that I would apply when working with clients.

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 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 offer in person counselling for individuals and couples in my Whangarei central office, also worldwide online counselling in English, Swedish and Estonian.

My areas of interest include couples therapy, migration and cultural issues, stress and anxiety, relationship challenges, life transitions, communication difficulties and self-esteem concerns.

Kia Ora and welcome,
Take the first step toward healing—counselling is your bridge to a brighter self.

It’s okay to be, and sometimes feel, a little messy. Life is messy and I know this isn’t easy!
But you don’t have to do it alone, so I am so glad you are exploring options to support yourself.
You deserve this!

If you are struggling and need someone to talk too, you are in the right space.
I work with individuals, teens and parents/families as well as ethnic minorities.

I’m here to understand your life’s intricacies and offer an integrative approach to therapy. With a master’s degree in Psychology and ongoing training in Depth Psychotherapy, I draw inspiration from various therapies, including CBT, Positive Psychology, and Mindfulness.

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

Are you feeling distress from a current or past relationship ?
If you are then look no further. I am an experienced Counsellor and Coach.

I can help you by providing a healing trusting space to work through your distress and then to find more empowered communication styles to build better relationships and a better future.
