Kia Ora and Welcome,
My name is Ban and I’m a registered counsellor with experience working with individuals, kids/teens and families/parents with whatever issues they are going through. My main purpose is to be present, compassionate, and an open human in the room with you. I focus on building a safe, confidential, and non-judgmental space to work through the tough decapitting stuff.
It’s okay to be, and sometimes feel, a little messy. Life is messy and I know this isn’t easy!
But you don’t have to do it alone, so I am so glad you are exploring options to support yourself.
You deserve this!
If you are struggling and need someone to talk too, you are in the right space.

My Counselling Approach
As a counsellor, my training is person-centered and pluralistic (not a one-size-fits-all approach) and I believe that you are the expert in your own life, so I will collaborate with you to address your unique needs and experiences!
I utilize evidence-based counselling methods such as Dialectical Behaviour therapy (DBT), cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), to name a few. I also draw on these to support your understanding of yourself, how your brain and nervous system work, as well as the knowledge of others’ relationships around you, to find the best ways to overcome challenges and develop coping strategies.
You may have questions about the process or about counselling in general.
please dont hesitate to contact me to discuss this further.
Looking forward to walking along side you to a journey full of fullfilment and empowerment

Specialisations
How many sessions do I need?
everyone is unique and different. some people need 8-10 sessions to work through what they bring to therapy. others need a year. It really depends on your willingness to do the work and dig deeper into the root cause of what started things. it can be tough to be in therapy. but it is important to have the right match and fit as therapy is all about your relational relationship and feeling safe to share without fear or misunderstanding and judgement.
