As a clinical psychologist and certified anxiety coach I help women who are tired of anxiety or depression getting in the way of everything they do. I support those who are passionate and wanting more from their relationships and their lives, but are feeling held back by mental health concerns. I work with women who want more intimacy (get your libido back) and connection, as well as mothers who are tried of anxiety getting in the way of their parenting. I support career and business women who want to scale their dreams but find anxiety keeps getting in the way...

Have you recently noticed yourself feeling low in mood and your relationships have changed because of this? Or that your interpersonal experiences have impacted your mood. It can feel like a revolving door as depression and anxiety changes the mind's view of ourselves and others. You may have noticed increasing conflict, dependence or isolation to name a few stressful experiences. Together we can work to improve your coping mechanisms to foster healthier relationships and regain a sense of yourself.

I am here to support you and make the process as comfortable as possible. Perhaps there is something specific you are wanting improve, like relationships, stress, substance abuse, or anxiety.

Angela Carter
Counsellor, NZAFT

As Bessel van der Kolk notes, trauma is specifically an event that overwhelms the central nervous system, altering the way we process and recall memories. “Trauma is not the story of something that happened back then," he adds. "It's the current imprint of that pain, horror, and fear living inside people.” I am a well-established health professional who has dedicated my professional life working on releasing trauma in a natural, nurturing way, returning my clients to their natural state of wholeness. I call this "The Journey Home". I work from a neuroscience perspective. Harmonising all aspects of our being ~ Mind ~ Body ~ Soul
