Tiera | Counsellor

Kia ora, I’m Tiera (she/her), a registered counsellor based in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland.
 

For 15 years, I’ve worked alongside young people and their families, helping them navigate life’s challenges. As a counsellor for the past 7 years, I’ve supported teens and adults in schools, bereavement support, community counselling, and private practice.

My approach is pluralistic, trauma-informed, and tailored to you. I draw from evidence-backed methods to find what works best, ensuring a safe, supportive space where you feel heard and understood.

I’m passionate about inclusivity - I’m a safe and affirming counsellor for LGBTTQIA+ individuals and have experience supporting neurodivergent clients. I also provide wellbeing workshops and trauma-informed training for schools and workplaces.

As a Member of NZAC, I adhere to the highest ethical standards, offering compassionate, professional care. If you're ready to talk it through, I’m here to help.
