I work with children, young people, adults, and facilitate therapeutic groups and workshops. I enjoy working with brain-injured and neurodiverse clients (including ADD and ASD). I support clients to stand up to problems and develop preferred ways of being. I work with them to identify, reflect upon, and achieve the hopes and goals that are important to them in their life and relationships. I also provide professional and clinical supervision to health and allied health practitioners.I believe that a collaborative, safe and respectful therapeutic relationship enhances emotion regulation and promotes self-awareness and resilience.

Kia ora, I'm Paola. In therapy, change comes in waves and cycles, like with the tides. I provide my clients a safe and professional environment to navigate those therapeutic tides in the smoothest way possible. I bring to the therapeutic process competence, clarity and clinical discernment for the client to be able to dive safely in the deep waters of personal transformation. Clients report that they experience tangible results as enhanced self-esteem and trust, reduced severity of symptoms as anxiety, depression, grief or mental confusion, and the restoring of their capacity for secure, and organized relationships, among others.

I prefer to work with clients in person but if meeting in person is impossible or impractical, I can provide services online.
Most people come to treatment to relieve suffering as quickly as possible. Early in treatment we usually focus on relief of the most troubling symptoms. As people become aware of how lifelong personality issues affect their ability to experience intimacy and accept and appreciate themselves, many choose to continue treatment.

Can You Save Your Marriage? When you're lying in bed at night, feeling distant from your partner, it may seem hopeless. But change is possible—even if only one of you is ready to take the first step.

If you're tired of cold silence and talk of divorce, and traditional couples therapy isn't working, there’s hope.

If traditional talk therapy is leaving you feeling stuck or you are finding it hard to verbalize your thoughts and feelings, creative arts therapy may help you to express yourself. You can choose a modality that resonates, in response to prompts, feelings and themes discussed during the session. You don't need to be 'good at art', it is about the process not the product.
