In Person Therapists in Upper Hutt District
Many people reach a point where they need professional help. They may describe themselves as 'stuck' or bewildered or fearful. For many adults seeking therapy, their repetitive behaviour patterns are causing real distress. The issues may centre in their work, their homes or their own fears and worries. When we realise that we may benefit from non judgmental help this is the first step to change for us. Anxiety and low mood frequently develop in response to challenges and worry. I can help you to prioritise, balance your life and respond in a sustainable way to what is making life so hard.

As a cognitive-behavioural therapist, I will apply evidence-based knowledge of biological, psychological, social and contextual factors to assess, formulate and treat any emotional, mental, developmental or behavioural problems you might be struggling with. I treat all DSM 5 disorders (e.g. OCD) and also work with sub-clinical individuals who feel like they need extra support, guidance or insight.

People who come to see me are usually experiencing grief, depression, suicidal thoughts, anxiety or anger. Some have experienced past abuse and have a history of trauma. We relate much of this to their early relationship experiences. By working through these attachment issues, we learn how to better regulate extreme emotions.

I have 3 alterative options either in person, (individuals $120; couples $160), via zoom or by telephone (individuals only $100).
My role as a counsellor is to help you to get on the path to bring about the changes you wish to make in your life.

I am available to meet with you to discuss and talk through anything that is concerning you, or that you would like to see different in your life. An initial counselling session will enable you to discuss with me what you want to achieve during the counselling process. It will also help me to gain a bigger picture of who you are, so together we can work out how you will bring the changes you seek to make.
