Kristen Bayliss
Psychologist, Registered Psychologist, BSc, MA
Body image is a combination of the thoughts and feelings that you have about your body. Body image may range between positive and negative experiences, and one person may feel at different times positive or negative or a combination of both. As body image is influenced by internal (e.g. personality) and external (e.g. social environment) factors we work with the client to develop a balanced view of body image and it's impact.

Gaye Mallinson - Somatic Psychotherapies
Counsellor/Therapist, B.Soc.Ser. (Couns) Dist, Dip. Couns, Trauma Informed Yoga Cert, Pranayama Cert, Nidra Cert
I work primarily from a Rogerian or Person-Centred Therapy (PCT) approach using a conversational style listening patiently to you, always with empathy, genuineness and without judgement, to help find the solutions you desire for your life whilst adjusting my techniques to fit your needs within each session.
Being a woman myself and by listening to many, many other peoples stories of body image issues, I feel I have a good understanding of body image issues and how they can impact the person experiencing them. I can support you to find connection, strength and empowerment within your body to restore balance, happiness and inner peace.
I aim to do this by using various techniques of 'talk therapy' and somatic (mind/body) healing methods, along with offering practical strategies that may be useful where suitable and desired by you. Whatever you are going through, know that there is hope - Let me help you find that hope.

Auckland houses the majority of New Zealand's therapy community, with practitioners concentrated in Parnell, Remuera, Grey Lynn, and the North Shore. The city's housing affordability crisis — one of the worst in the world relative to income — is a persistent source of financial anxiety, and therapists frequently address housing stress, displacement, and the difficulty of achieving stability in one of the world's most expensive property markets. Auckland's large Pacific Islander and Māori populations require therapists with cultural competence around Indigenous mental health, collectivist family systems, and the historical trauma of colonization. Te Whatu Ora — Health New Zealand provides public mental health services, with a growing private therapy community serving those with health insurance or the capacity to self-fund.
