Kia Ora, I’m Felix. Thank you for taking the time to visit my profile. I’m a qualified CBT therapist and registered mental health social worker with over 10 years experience working in the New Zealand mental health system. Originally from Germany, I’ve been living and working in Aotearoa since 2014. I offer evidence-based talk therapy for young people and adults using Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT). I specialise in anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), low/depressed mood and stuttering. I can support you with a wide range of other mental health challenges too. Please see a list of areas I work with below.
I will meet with you in a safe and confidential space where we’ll work together towards your personal goals. Using CBT techniques, we’ll explore the challenges you’re experiencing, where they may have come from and what keeps them going. You’ll learn skills to deal with your challenges in a safe way and manage them with greater confidence and effectiveness.
My approach is genuine, empowering and non-judgmental, ensuring you feel heard and supported. I welcome people from all backgrounds, cultures, genders and sexual orientations. Please email me to arrange a free 15-minute phone call, where we can talk through what you’re looking for, see if I’m the right fit for you and answer any questions you may have.
