Trauma Counselling NZ

Hi, I’m Helen. I’m a therapist based in Porirua, and I work primarily with Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT). I love this work, and I love the results I see in my clients every day. I support people with anxiety, trauma, and overwhelm, and I take a thoughtful, individualised approach, combining deep therapeutic work with clear, grounded insight to help people understand what’s going on and what their next step might be.

I offer in-person counselling for individuals and couples from a cozy boathouse studio in central Whangarei, also worldwide online counselling in English, Swedish and Estonian. My therapy style is solution focused CBT mixed with other styles I find useful in personal growth. My areas of interest include couples therapy, migration and cultural issues, stress and anxiety, relationship challenges, life transitions, communication difficulties and self-esteem concerns.

I offer a relaxed, safe and non-judgemental atmosphere where you can allow yourself to explore the challenges you face and find acceptance with the past and things that cant be changed. I will walk with you through your struggles and assist you in finding a sense of understanding and peace.
