Welcome, I have experience working with a wide range of people. Perhaps you have a mental health diagnosis, unsatisfying relationships, issues around sex and sexuality, anxiety, depression, trauma, separation or maybe a yearning to live a more authentic, pleasurable and peaceful life. Relationships are challenging and require skills which are rarely taught and life brings struggle to us all. Psychotherapy can help you move through your challenges consciously with intent. Let's start with a conversation about your needs and if my skills and style are a good fit for you. For more information please see my website www.megandaube.com

Great to meet you. Psychotherapy helps many people to deal with their emotional and psychological distress. This distress can take many forms. Psychotherapy provides a safe space where painful stories and feelings can be explored; helps reduce your symptoms i.e. stress, anxiety, depression, irritability; improves your ability to cope with life and its stressors; helps you understand how, and why, you have become who you are; helps you grow in self-awareness, confidence, and happiness; helps you develop more satisfying intimate relationships; and develops a strengthened sense of inner identity and freedom to be who you are.

I work with a wide range of clients, but I have speciality interest in working with those who have had experience in fundamentalist or 'cult-like' groups. This may include experiences of religious / spiritual trauma, or a need to unravel past conditioning to find their own truth. I have training and extensive experience in trauma work. I also work a lot with people going through life transitions, or where there is a sense of needing to strengthen identity. I work a lot with people who find themselves somewhat on the 'outskirts' of the 'typical' - especially gender-diverse / non-binary and creatives, and many are also neuro-diverse.

Kia ora, I am a registered psychologist providing therapy for adults in Albany, on the North Shore of Auckland, and in Parnell, near the city centre. I am also available for sessions online. At times, all of us feel overwhelmed, a lack of direction, or question where our lives are heading. Often it’s helpful to talk to someone outside our circle. Therapy is a space to reflect on our journey so far, build insight into how we got here, develop skills and approaches to cope with life’s challenges, and plan our next steps to move positively into the future and grow.

If you’re struggling – with depression or anxiety, difficulty in your relationships, coming to terms with life changes or loss – talking to someone who really listens can make a profound difference. I’m a counsellor offering short- or long-term talk therapy, depending on your needs. My training is in psychodynamic psychotherapy, which looks at the way thoughts, feelings and behaviours we’re often not even aware of can cause problems in our lives.
