Neil | Social Worker and Counsellor
Counselling Whanganui
Kia ora,
I am an experienced Counsellor and Group Facilitator that has been involved in clinical work for the past 10+ years.
I enjoy working alongside clients who are navigating major life transitions, coping with mental health challenges, or seeking greater self-awareness.
I also welcome couples who are interested in relationship counselling.
My top specialties include relationship dynamics, men's issues, intimate partner abuse and violence, anger management, and parenting. I utilise narrative therapy to guide our counselling sessions.
My approach is person-centered - putting you in control of your therapeutic journey. I incorporate solutions-focused brief therapy and motivation interviewing to assist you to achieve manageable goals.
Our counselling sessions embrace a strength-based, trauma-informed framework.
I'm excited to connect with you and explore how we can work together to achieve your goals and create positive change. I look forward to hearing from you.
Noho ora mai,
Neil
