Welcome! My name is Harriet (she/her) and I am from New Zealand. I grew up in Auckland and have since travelled the world meeting people and experiencing many different ways of life. ​ For the past 12 years I have been working with young people, adults and their families to support them with physical and mental health challenges. I like to work in creative and adaptable ways. This means I understand there is no one size fits all approach. You are the leader of your recovery and I want to support you in the way that makes most sense for you.

I offer both short-term counselling focusing on specific issues as well as longer-term psychotherapy. If you are frustrated with repeating old patterns of behaving and feeling and are searching for increased wellbeing, self-acceptance and resilience, psychotherapy can make a big difference to your life. Sharing your difficulties with a caring and effective listener can help you live more adventurously and feel more at ease in your own skin. I prefer to work collaboratively towards useful and achievable goals that you choose.

People attend therapy for a variety of reasons – to understand thoughts and feelings; to explore current and past experiences; to develop effective coping strategies; to improve relationships and interact more effectively with others; to identify what has meaning and discover new pathways. Experienced in working with a diversity of cultures and sexual orientations. In essence, my role is to facilitate healing in a way that enhances self empowerment, wellness and interconnection with life.

Do you find yourself lost in your thoughts? Are these thoughts constantly on your mind keeping you from living your life? Through life's obstacles and challenges, there is a story. You deserved to be heard for yourself or your relationship with your loved ones. Each journey with a client is unique.

When past traumas or present issues create road bumps in your life, I can work collaboratively to help you make sense of it all.

I have predominantly worked with people transitioning through big changes in their lives and in their work contexts. Change can be overwhelming and uncomfortable. We often fear it and struggle to take those first steps because it requires a lot of our commitment. Sometimes it can be paralysing anxiety and panic attacks that hold us back or it is because we are struggling with our purpose and intent and feel lost and hopeless at where to begin. Discovering your purpose and setting yourself up for success can be empowering. We often just need the right kind of guidance and courage to begin the journey.

Hi, I'm a registered psychologist with 20 years experience of working with clients. I take a holistic approach (spiritual, emotional, physical and cognitive), and recognise that we all have intersecting identities. I'm interested in my clients’ individual story and believe that they are the expert on themselves. We are all unique and it's a privilege to work with a client to support their sense of self and wellbeing. I offer short and long term therapy from a lens that is cross cultural and draw upon a range of approaches and theories. I also provide professional supervision and workshops which are outlined on my website.

I seek to meet my clients where they are, sensitively feeling into what it might be like to be you, with respect, openness and warmth. I have a particular interest in guiding individuals through the intimate process of working through emotional pain and early relational trauma. I tend to focus on what is happening in the client/therapist relationship. How do you feel about the way we are working together? What does the connection between us feel like today? Examining relational patterns in this immediate way can help us discover what it means to engage non-defensively and authentically with ourselves and with life.
