Therapy Lower Hutt

Good on you for reaching out, I know it’s not always easy.
Working with you I use a range of therapeutic modalities, tailored to your needs, to help you gain insight into any problems related to emotional distress, limiting beliefs and habits, unhelpful desires and fears - all with the aim of releasing or transforming these into whatever serves you better.
What we do together is more than just talking. I help you have balance and well-being as you go from a place of surviving to thriving!
I offer a free 20 minute ‘try before you buy’ consultation by phone or zoom so you can find out how I can work for you. Feel free to flip me an email to arrange this.
I'm an Occupational Therapist with a background in Mental Health, in addition to being an accredited and certified Emotional Freedom Techniques Practitioner and an advanced Reiki Practitioner.
I work with all age groups and welcome diversity. I look forward to hearing from you.

Online therapy
For online sessions. We pre-arrange a time and date when you know you will have the time and space for us to work together uninterrupted or overheard.
Prior to the session you need to ensure you are comfortably seated in a private space, with a drink and box of tissues. The screen you are using needs to be fixed so your head and upper body are visible.
I ask you to view our session as if you've left your house and come to my therapy space. In that space you will not be responding to dishwashers turning off, mobile phones, children coming home from school etc. Why? Because your therapy is your time to focus on you and this is easier to achieve when you physically leave your normal space.
Be fierce about giving yourself the time and space you need without distractions, even when you are at home potentially surrounded by them.

I am skilled at group work and delivering therapy in a group setting.
Emotional Freedom Techniques is a powerful, fast acting therapy that helps people feel more comfortable in one or two sessions. Where there are more complex issues or the client wishes to address more 'stuff' then more sessions are needed. EFT is particularly good at shifting the blocked energy around a problem and releasing the pain that it causes.
Most common issues I support people with:
Basically, if you have uncomfortable feelings around a memory, thought or behaviour such as shame, loss, anger or fear etc. I can help you to release that discomfort and move on.My aim is to give you a tool kit to solve problems yourself.
