Therapists in Auckland
We all know how difficult it can be to start something new. Whether it’s your first time in therapy or not, it’s quite normal to feel a range of different emotions. With this said, sometimes leaning into the process and stepping out of your comfort zone can bring a sense of relief and broaden your perspective on what’s possible. At times, we can feel as if we are walking life’s path alone, but that doesn’t mean we have to. Therapy provides that additional support and guidance to uncover barriers, facilitate options, and choose a value driven direction in life.

Counselling is an opportunity for you to tell your story to someone who is objective, non-judgemental and empathetic. A counsellor will give you unconditional positive regard and it is a completely confidential process. Talking through your thoughts and feelings can provide clarity about what’s going on – there’s something about hearing yourself say these things out loud that releases the heaviness of what you have been carrying.
