Brilliant service! Rachel helped me organise everything needed to get me started on my mental health journey with Aaron. This included liaising with ACC to enable partial subsidisation of my consults, achieving a total cost of only $15 per visit. Both Rachel and Aaron have been fantastic in the means of communication, providing prompt replies through the day and even on weekends and late nights. I have just gotten started on my journey with Aaron, which I am very much looking forward to. His warmth, dedication and expertise of ~20 years in the industry, makes him the perfect mental health guide to support me through the difficult times I have been dealt. I would highly recommend this team to anyone wishing to improve their mental health outcomes. More...

I have been working with Arron and Rachel at Te Ara Hou for just about 4 weeks now and I couldn't recommend these guys more. They have such a balanced approach which I love and everything we have worked through together so far has been hugely beneficial to me. The kindness and support I receive from these guys is something truly amazing and I will be forever grateful ❤️ More...

"Te Hou Ara has been a game changer for me. Arron's life coaching and therapy sessions have helped me learn more about myself than I ever expected. The positive changes I've noticed in my mindset and emotional control have been incredible. I also have to give a big shoutout to Rachel at the front desk – she made the entire process easy and efficient, right from the start. Highly recommend their services for anyone looking to make real progress in their life." More...

Arron is my go to guy, easy to talk to and has some great feed back, I don't know where I'd be right now without Te Ara Hou. Cheers Mate.

What do you love most about your job?
Te Ara Hou Wellbeing firmly believes in treatment that gives results.
We love being able to offer a diverse range of services, with each treatment plan tailored to the different needs of our clients.
It interests us to get to know the story behind what brought our client in the door, identifying their strengths, and helping them realise what goals and potentials lay within them.
The flexibility that we have to work with clients either in person or online fits with our philosophy that there should be no barriers to receiving treatment - if you do not like, or are unable to attending face to face appointments - we make it work for you!
What inspired you to start your own business?
Rongoa Maori is a model I am passionate about and I am a life long learner who wanted to apply my knowledge, and create a space for treatment that challenges the current issues in the mainstream ’systems’. At the very core of my philosophy is to bridge the gap between modern and traditional healing for your wellness.
Healthcare systems in New Zealand are overstretched. The wait lists for treatment are long and it is frustrating to watch people who want to start their journey to wellness coming up against barriers - and not knowing what to do!
At Te Ara Hou Wellbeing we encourage a holistic, human centered model that empowers you to find your own path to healing and wellbeing.
Why should our clients choose you?
With 25 years of educational and practical experience, Arron prides himself on being relatable to others and being able to share his own past experiences with clients in order to build rapport.
Engaging with a Holistic Rongoā Therapist or Holistic Coach allows you not only to access models such as positive pyschology, Dialectual Behavioural Therapy and Rongoa Maori practices - it also means you are dealing with people who have been through life, faced their own struggles and have come out the other side with a passion and motivation to help others.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
Yes! Telephone coaching or Zoom calls are alternatives to face to face appointments and this is part of what we have found to be successful when dealing with clients in the early stages of battling PTSD, depression or anxiety related issues - as it can be very difficult to engage face to face or to even want to leave the house!
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
In our clinic for face to face appointments, sanitiser and facemasks are available for clients.
Covid 19 was the beginnining of Te Ara Hou Wellbeing wanting to offer services online, as was the case for many business.
