Find someone to talk to.

Welcome! You have made the courageous decision to address the challenges in your life. If you prefer a solution focused, accelerated therapy, I might be the right therapist for you: as a consultant clinical psychologist and EMDR therapist, I am committed to supporting you towards leading a more fulfilling life, in harmony with your values and aspirations. EMDR is a highly effective, neuro-psychology based treatment, which can significantly accelerate healing from a range of traumas, fears, psychosomatic pains and addictions. I am also trained in CBT, ACT, Motivational Interviewing, hypnosis, mindfulness and change management, and I provide supervision for professionals of various disciplines. I often see clients from high responsibility, high public-exposure professions, as well as medical, mental health, IT, business and legal professionals. My clients regularly comment on how their tension eased within a couple of minutes of our first encounter. My multicultural background strengthened my passion to work with people of various cultures, spiritualities, and sexual orientations. I also speak Hungarian and German.

I'm a registered psychologist with over 10 years of experience supporting people to navigate the impact of trauma, anxiety, emotional dysregulation, stress, and addiction. My approach draws on ACT and CBT, and I will work with you to develop practical and effective strategies for your individual situation. I care about creating a compassionate space where you can talk about what's going on without feeling judged, and to move towards a meaningful and satisfying life.

I have a Postgraduate Diploma in Counselling Skills and Theory at the University of Canterbury, with a focus on evidence-based approaches including CBT, ACT, SFBT, and Narrative Therapy. This builds on my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Massey University and reflects my passion for understanding people and supporting their growth and wellbeing.

Sometimes life can feel overwhelming, confusing or difficult to navigate. Perhaps you're struggling with something specific, feeling stuck, or simply finding it hard to make sense of things. Whatever brings you to counselling, you don't need to have all the answers or know where to start.

Just bring yourself and we'll make room for what's difficult while also recognising your strengths, experiences and skills already there. Together, we can explore what's happening for you and what might help you move forward. I support people through a range of challenges, including anxiety, grief, trauma and times of change or uncertainty. Everyone's experiences are different, and we'll work together to explore what might be helpful for you. I offer both online and in-person sessions.

My understanding of life's challenges is shaped not only by my counselling experience, but also by my own lived experiences. These have deepened my appreciation of how important it is to feel heard, understood and met with compassion. I bring this understanding to our work together, approaching with curiosity, respect and an openness to your experience.

Whether you're facing a difficult time, feeling stuck or wanting to understand yourself better, counselling can help you explore what's happening and consider what might help. If you'd like to know more, you're welcome to get in touch.

She works with people who are anxious, overwhelmed or feeling stuck, and also offers ADHD assessments. Diante is the author of The Gift of Anxiety and the founder of The Unstuck Initiative.

You do not have to navigate this alone.

I am a registered psychotherapist based in Auckland, offering in-person psychotherapy in Devonport and Takapuna, and online therapy across Aotearoa New Zealand.

My work is grounded in relational and psychodynamic psychotherapy, with attention to how our early attachments and relationships, lived experience, and social context shape our patterns of feeling and relating to ourselves and others today.

I work with adults experiencing anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties, life transitions, and the impact of trauma, as well as those seeking a deeper understanding of themselves. Therapy offers a confidential and steady space to explore recurring patterns and to feel more anchored and at ease within yourself.

ACC Sensitive Claims Counsellor and Social Worker. I enjoy supporting individuals and organisations to maximise the use of best health and rehabilitation practices.

I'm Lisa, a teacher, relationship coach, family mediator and facilitator with over 20 years of experience. I work online with parents, teens, couples and families, especially when conversations feel difficult or the same patterns keep repeating.

When a child shuts down, a teenager pushes back, or a couple finds themselves in the same argument again, it's natural to focus on what needs to change. I'm curious about what's happening underneath: the feelings, needs and experiences that may be hard to put into words.

I offer a warm, non-judgemental space to slow things down, understand each other more deeply and find a way forward that feels true to you. Sometimes changing the behaviour we see begins with changing the quality of connection underneath it. I also bring this approach to my facilitation, mediation and training with not-for-profit organisations in Aotearoa, NZ.

I'm a registered social worker and therapist based in Christchurch, working with adults who are struggling with stress, burnout, ADHD, and emotional patterns that keep getting in the way of how they want to live. A lot of the people I work with know something isn't right but aren't sure how to talk about it yet. That's a good enough starting point.

I'm a clinical psychologist with particular training in ecosystemic/ interactional psychotherapy. A psychotherapy process with me will help you discover how you impact others, how they in turn impact you, and how such dynamics interplay with your mental health.

Ever since, I have been involved with community organisations in the space of community empowerment, family violence, advocacy and counselling. For over 24 years I have been part of a leading national NGO, Shakti, considered a specialist in culturally competent family violence intervention and prevention services for migrant and refugee communities in New Zealand. At Shakti I am contracted as Lead Counsellor, Facilitator and Supervisor. I have a Master's Degree in Counselling from The University of Auckland, where my research explored the need for alternate models for counselling immigrants living in western nations, particularly women impacted by family violence.

I hold contracts with several Public Health Organisations, ACC accreditation for Sensitive Claims Services, and international EAP contracts.

Healing begins when you feel safe, seen, and understood. Life's experiences can leave us carrying emotional wounds that affect how we relate to ourselves, others, and the world around us.

Hi, I'm Yulia. I am a counsellor with a master's degree in psychology and ongoing training in adult psychotherapy. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, emotional overwhelm, and life transitions. I also support people navigating migration, fertility and IVF journeys, parenting challenges, and other significant life changes. My approach is warm, thoughtful, and collaborative. I believe that our difficulties often make sense when viewed in the context of our relationships, experiences, and life circumstances. I have a particular interest in the impact of early attachment and childhood experiences, and how these continue to shape our emotional wellbeing, relationships, and sense of self. Therapy is not about being judged or told what to do. Rather, it offers a space to slow down, make sense of what is happening, and explore new ways of responding to life's challenges.
