Registered Health Psychologist - Wellington

Life contains many adversities. Such adversities may arrive in the form of an unexpected illness or diagnosis, a stressful work environment, difficult relationships or the loss of someone or something important to us. In the face of such challenges, it is not unusual to feel like we are losing control of ourselves, our lives and what really matters deep down. When life becomes a struggle, therapeutic conversations and support can helping you to develop practical skills to reduce suffering and enhance your life.
