Trauma counselling Northland Region

A key ingredient of my coaching style is that YOU are the focus of our time together. It's YOUR life after all and YOU are the one that will be making any changes in YOUR life.

Our sessions together are open, safe and confidential. At the end of the day, your honesty with yourself is a vital part of your growth, and I will do all I can to facilitate that in our time together.

I offer in person counselling for individuals and couples in my Whangarei central office, also worldwide online counselling in English, Swedish and Estonian.

Hi, my name is Colin, counsellor in Whangarei. I have over 30 years experience working with individuals (children, youth, adults), families and couples.

We all experience difficulties at times in our lives that cause us to struggle, lose hope and feel like our life is out of control. I believe it is possible to gain the strength needed to face our issues, the hope to move forward and the balance to feel in control of our lives again. Counselling can assist in helping you to overcome life’s hurdles in a positive way.

In life we can all have times that are more challenging and painful than others and counselling can provide a safe space to work through those seasons.

I am a counsellor who is committed to providing that safe and confidential environment where people can feel heard and validated while working through their pain and struggles without judgement.
