Life-coaching West Coast Region

I offer in-person counselling for individuals and couples from a cozy boathouse studio in central Whangarei, also worldwide online counselling in English, Swedish and Estonian. My therapy style is solution focused CBT mixed with other styles I find useful in personal growth.

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

Welcome to my page, you may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or emotionally exhausted inside. Grief, anxiety, trauma, or disconnection may be weighing you down. My clients often long for a space where they don’t have to pretend, where they can simply be themselves and feel fully accepted.

I am a member of NZAC and focus on offering skills for regulating emotions and working towards healing/thriving. I have been instrumental in the mindfulness modalities for therapy and emotional regulation across Australasia since the mid 2000s. Improving relationship (even that which you have with yourself) is the path to thriving. My motto is: the past informed the present, but the NOW creates the future. There is no time like now to step up and grow your relationship wellbeing.

A key focus and passion is trauma recovery for big T and little t trauma. It may be very recent or from our past. Such trauma as childhood sexual abuse, abandonment, neglect, earthquakes, violence, bullying, car accidents, and warfare.

I offer tailored counseling services for individuals, couples, and groups.  My dedicated practice is committed to providing accessible and affordable solutions to help you overcome life's obstacles.

Life can feel overwhelming when you are carrying anxiety, stress, trauma, relationship challenges, grief, or low self-worth. I provide counselling for adults seeking support with emotional overwhelm, burnout, family dynamics, and patterns that may be keeping them stuck. I work with both men and women, offering a warm, supportive, and non-judgemental space where you can feel heard and understood. I also offer a free 30-minute meet-and-greet so you see whether working together feels like the right fit for you

My name is Nicola, and I am an eating disorder recovery coach.

An eating disorder not only affects the person suffering from it but the whole family too. For this reason, I also focus on helping the family through this journey, advising on how to best support the client at home and in day-to-day life.

I’m an Existential therapist, and I offer individual counselling and psychotherapy. I like supporting people in activating their connection to themselves and accompanying them through challenging life situations. Additionally, I am drawn to Eastern Philosophy, mindfulness, and interconnectedness.
