Kia ora and welcome. I’m a Tauranga based counsellor.
New to counselling? I often get asked what counselling is and how it works and, frankly, I struggle to answer that succinctly. Counselling is a conversation with the purpose of leading to change. Change might simply be a different understanding, changing some habits of behaving or speaking, or in the case of trauma, healing a traumatic wound so you no longer get triggered into fear, rage or shutdown in your present life.
Counselling is a “isolated” relationship. This means that our relationship in this room is insulated through
confidentiality from the rest of your life and the people in it. Because of this it becomes a space for you to reveal anything, safe in the knowledge that it stays with the counsellor (there are a few exceptions to this…see booking page for these). Hopefully this will allow you to, fairly quickly, get to the bottom of what is going on.
