Debbie
Bereavement Counselling
Before reaching out to Steph I had fallen into a huge “dark hole” full of grief and guilt after loosing a treasured member of our family. When I connected with Steph I was unsure if she could help. Ive now had 7 weeks working with Steph and I am honesty better than I’ve ever been. Steph LISTENED, she had a massive ability to understand what I was saying. She gave me time to express myself, she never rushed me, she challenged my words in a nonjudgemental supportive way. A sincere thanks to Steph for her help and guidance. More...

Holistic Counselling
Issues I work with include ; Life crises and overwhelm.
Identifying and integrating childhood trauma (in adults). Strategies for managing anger and behavioural changes. Relationship and intimacy. Depression and anxiety. Processing Grief.
I offer Holistic Counselling informed by the work of Roberto Assagioli and Psychosynthesis Therapy.
I hold maps and models that support you to identify resources you can rely on at times of crisis. Working to identify what really matters to you in your life. To support you through life challenges so you can make choices that work for you.
I have an inclusive practise that recognises the trauma from the effects of colonisation for Maori and the journey of healing in our post-colonial culture. I embrace the efforts currently being made as a culture, and in my practise, to support an environment for healing intergenerational trauma as an effect of colonisation that affects all New Zealanders.
Grief Counselling
Grieving is a painful but necessary process. I support you to be with what is arising for you in a supportive safely held setting.
The poet John O’Donohue puts it this way;
"When you lose someone you love,
Your life becomes strange,
The ground beneath you becomes fragile,"
My invitation is to sit with you as you go through the 'strangeness' supporting your process as a caring guide and advocate for your grieving.
Supporting Life Goals & Dreams
Psychosynthesis has some great techniques for putting you in touch with your essential self. This includes your values, needs and and sense of purpose.
Guided imagery and self-reflection puts you in touch with your own inner wisdom in way that is not usually available in everyday life. In this way I facilitate your awareness of a deeper, authentic sense of self.
