In Person Therapists in Thames-Coromandel District
I work with those people who are seeking relief from symptoms of depression and anxiety, those who are being challenged by relationship issues or would like to explore more meaningful connection to themselves. We are often lost in the business of family and work and lose sight of what we need or want most from life. I can help you rediscover those aspects. Often it is loneliness or isolation caused by life circumstances or trauma within and outside of the family. I have over ten years of working with PTSD and Anxiety and depression and I am a certified ACC sensitive claims therapist.

Kia ora & hello. If you are feeling lost or stuck, psychotherapy can be helpful in uncovering & untangling what may be happening for you. Psychotherapy can also help if you are experiencing relationship and/or communication difficulties; if you feel anxious or sad for no apparent reason; if you feel stressed or affected by life and/or world events; if you are interested in a deeper understanding of yourself. In nurturing self-awareness for the past & present, old stories & adaptive patterns, your conscious & unconscious, psychotherapy can help bring about understanding & lasting changes.

We all have times in our lives when we feel stuck or like something just isn't going right - life isn't playing out the way we hoped.

Using a warm and compassionate approach, my therapy sessions are tailored to each individual client and their particular needs with the aim of helping them better understand their experience and move towards living a valued and meaningful life, negotiating barriers to this as we go.

You and your relationships matter—those with intimate partners, family, and close friends! When you are dealing with anxiety, trauma, loneliness, or other emotional pain, your well-being and that of those around you can be affected. You deserve a safe nurturing space to explore and address your feelings. Counselling helps you heal, gain insights, and develop strategies to manage your emotions and unhelpful behaviours. If overwhelming emotions are affecting your connections, seeking joint, couples, or family counselling can improve communication, rebuild trust, and strengthen your bond. Adults and teens welcome in-person or online.

Welcome to my practice. I am a registered clinical psychologist, offering long and short-term psychotherapy to adults and couples. I view issues and challenges brought to therapy through a holistic lens and believe that body, mind and spirit are all equally important for optimal well-being. I have a special interest in working with couples and individuals dealing with issues related to relationships and sex. When it comes to couples therapy, areas that I have a particular interest in include sexual issues like desire discrepancy and loss of sexual pleasure and enjoyment, lack of emotional intimacy, infidelity and affairs.

We all experience times in life when things are just too much and feel too hard to deal with on our own. It can be hard to talk to friends and family as often there can be an agenda. Counselling is a space where you can be you, without any judgement, and I believe the hard times in life teach us the most. Counselling is my passion and I enjoy giving people the opportunity to have a space to look at issues without being judged. I believe many people have not had the opportunity to really experience being listened to, this can enable you to create great changes in your life.

I work with children, young people, adults, and groups to support them to stand up to problems and develop preferred ways of being. I work with clients to identify, reflect upon, and achieve the hopes and goals that are important to them in their life and relationships. I provide professional supervision to practitioners in the fields of health and social practice (including counselling, occupational therapy, nursing, midwifery, social work, and human services etc). I believe that a collaborative, safe and respectful therapeutic relationship enhances emotion regulation and promotes self-awareness and resilience.

Life can feel overwhelming and sometimes goes differently than planned. It throws us unexpected curveballs, leaving us feeling anxious, depressed, sad, bewildered, grieving, and confused. In those times, it can feel like we are at a crossroads—not knowing which path to choose. Talking with a nonjudgmental and empathetic therapist can be an important first step towards healing and clarity. I provide relational and emotion-focused psychotherapy to individuals who would like support during difficult times to make sense of their emotions, experiences, and way of being in the world.

I seek to meet my clients where they are, sensitively feeling into what it might be like to be you, with respect, openness and warmth. I have a particular interest in guiding individuals through the intimate process of working through emotional pain and early relational trauma. I tend to focus on what is happening in the client/therapist relationship. How do you feel about the way we are working together? What does the connection between us feel like today? Examining relational patterns in this immediate way can help us discover what it means to engage non-defensively and authentically with ourselves and with life.
