In Person Counselling in Hope Island, QLD

As a frontline responder, a veteran, or as an individual experiencing trauma, a victim of crime, or suffering suicidal ideation, I have a unique set of skills and insight that you may find helpful. Prior to becoming a psychologist, I was an Australian Federal Police officer, for 31 years. I worked alongside Queensland Police, other police services across the world, ambulance services, firies, and our Defence personnel in Afghanistan. I was a nurse prior to joining the AFP. I was driven to psychology through my role as a police negotiator and through witnessing the adverse impact of what we do on too many and their mental health.

Hi, my name is Ngairini. I'm an experienced Counsellor based in Island Bay, Wellington, New Zealand & occasionally at the Gold Coast, Queensland (every three months, hence that address). I'm here to support children, youth, adults & families to work towards a more fulfilled life using any modalities in my list for any of the issues that they face. I work with my Service dog Stanley who is peaceful & safe with children/humans. He provides great comfort for children/ all ages (if you like dogs). He is clean, vaccinated, healthy and non smelling. He is open for pats during the session. My sessions are online, on phone or face to face.

For over 20 years I have had the privilege of delivering person-centred supports to neurodivergent children, their families, and educators. I am known for my holistic approach to intervention, with my philosophy being centred around the power of combining evidence-based approaches. Using Play Therapy I build connections with children as we work together to develop their emotional regulation, social intelligence and cognitive skills. Play allows children to apply their natural skills and strengths while learning challenging concepts. This leads to independence, self-confidence and self-determination that will last a lifetime.

Not everyone needs a psychological diagnosis. Do you need someone to talk to? Are you finding life a struggle, feel anxious or overwhelmed? Has something specific happened that is preventing you from moving forward; the end of a relationship, loss of a job, a bereavement?

Perhaps things don't feel quite right and you need guidance with discovering any underlying issues you may not be aware of? As a trained counsellor, I offer a non-judgemental space to listen and help you sift through what may be troubling you.
