Shareen Birges
Registered Social Worker, BASS, GDYMH, MSW
Working with teens & their families has given me extensive experience in supporting parents. This has included providing information & knowledge on how best to support their parenting. Every parent does the best they can & the guidance I provide is centered around how parents they can adapt & improve their parenting rather than blaming or criticizing. Its important that parents feel comfortable to work with me in a collaborative way otherwise their is no room for change so I focus on building a relationship with parents where they feel safe and comfortable to share experiences and work with me. No parent is perfect & usually working in improving parenting is about learning how best to support your kids & their individual, & collective, needs.

Irene Valis
Counsellor/Therapist, Gestalt Psychotherapist, PACFA Certified Counsellor, Life Coach
As a wife, mother and daughter, I resonate with the joys and challenges of parenting.
I tried so hard to be a good mum that eventually I lost my way a little and made child-rearing like a mission to accomplish rather than a journey to be savoured and experienced.
This awareness led me to seek support and put the oxygen-mask on as they say.
Now my parenting experience has completely shifted, it is a lot more relaxed, satisfying and fun - and my children and husband feel it too.
My mission is to nurture and support other women who are mothers or are planning to be mothers to foster and engage in safe, respectful and loving relationships first within themselves and in turn their children and their family.
I also support mothers who have recently become empty-nesters and grappling with a sense of loss of identity and purpose.

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 Pasifika and Māori populations require therapists with cultural competence around Indigenous mental health, collectivist family systems, and the historical trauma of colonisation. 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.
