Leah

Counsellor

Kia ora! First things first, you are welcome and valued in this space we share together!

My approach is holistic and considers the many different aspects that contribute to your well-being. You are expert in your life and I trust you hold the answers, I just have the privileged role in supporting you find those answers. I draw from different approaches depending on the challenges or presenting issues. With my focus on you as the client I work from a trauma informed lens drawing from Solution Focussed Brief Therapy (SFBT), Somatic Experiencing, Narrative Therapy, Dialectal Behavioural Therapy (DBT), and Internal Family Systems (IFS)

When I'm not in the counselling room you'll find me reviving worn-out furniture, basking in the sun, or sharing adventures with my friends/family/partner and lovely dog Maple. I have a holistic approach to well-being and value upholding this within myself so I am able to be present and connect with the wonderful people I meet.

I have experience in:

• Supporting teenagers as a highschool counsellor
• Supporting new mums in a community based role
• Supporting women who have, or are experiencing family harm
• Private practice counselling

I am passionate about helping clients recognise their power and work towards having compassion and love for themselves.
