Disruptions in thought processes, often referred to as thinking disorders, can significantly impact communication, perception, and daily functioning. At Mind Health, our experienced clinicians offer comprehensive assessments and evidence-based therapies tailored to address these challenges. Utilising approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Metacognitive Therapy (MCT), we aim to help individuals identify and modify unhelpful thought patterns, enhance self-awareness, and improve cognitive functioning. Our goal is to support clients in achieving clearer thinking and a better quality of life.

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. Due to my background in nursing and mental health, I have a good understanding of thinking disorders and how they impact the person including the potential impacts for those around them. I am able to utilise a psycho-educational approach to help you understand your thinking disorder better, along with specific strategies to address any unhelpful behaviours or habits you wish to improve so you can feel more structured and organised in your day to day life activities. My aim is to assist you with your thinking disorder struggles to restore balance, happiness and inner peace (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.
