Supervision and Counselling services are provided within the Nelson, Marlborough, Tasman region or via zoom.
I have a background in behaviour change interventions and work from a philosophy that you are the expert of yourself whilst guiding and supporting you to meet your desired outcomes.
I predominately work through Solution Focused Therapy as my therapeutic language to support a client centred and curious language where you remain the expert of yourself. I also utilise Motivational Interviewing (MI), Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT). At times I also adapt my work to include somatic work, leaning into the work of Peter Levine, working with the body to support healing.
I hold membership with New Zealand Association of Counsellors (NZAC). I have a Masters in Counselling (Distinction) and a Post Graduate Certificate in Health Science - Behaviour Change. The research component for my Masters explored how hope is co-constructed during counselling sessions through SFBT with adolescents.
I am a member of the Motivational Interviewing Network of Trainers (MINT).
