Hi, I’m Masha. Life can be challenging, but you don’t have to face it alone. Together, we’ll explore your experiences and work toward healing and growth. I’m a registered counsellor with the New Zealand Association of Counsellors (NZAC). My approach is client-centred and integrative, drawing on Person-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, Transactional Analysis, and Interactive Drawing Therapy (IDT).
With children, I employ creative, play-based methods, such as sand trays, drawing, and storytelling, to help them safely and freely express and process their emotions. In relationship work, I use Imago-informed strategies to support open, empathetic communication and a deeper connection between partners.
I offer a warm, non-judgmental space for individuals, couples, and children. Whether you’re navigating personal challenges, seeking to improve your relationships, or helping a child find their voice, I’m here to walk alongside you. Together, we can explore and work through your struggles at a pace that feels right for you.
