Divorce
Uri Bookman
Counsellor/Therapist, PACFA Registered Clinical Counsellor (30041), Relationship & Couples Counsellor, Certified Coach
As a PACFA Registered Clinical Counsellor (30041), I support people navigating separation and divorce, whether you’re considering leaving, trying to repair the relationship, or adjusting to what comes next. We work with the grief, fear, anger and uncertainty while looking beneath reactive conflict and recurring patterns. The aim is greater clarity, more considered decisions, constructive communication and, where relevant, healthier co-parenting.

Divorce
Brett Hall - Therapy for Deep Change
Registered Psychotherapist, Bsc - PSYCH/Neuro, Grad. Dip Gestalt Therapy
Divorce can bring up grief, uncertainty, and a sense of identity upheaval, even when it's the right decision. If you're navigating the end of a marriage and everything that comes with it, let's work together to help you move through this chapter with more clarity and less overwhelm.
The first step in working through divorce is understanding that whatever you're feeling — relief, anger, sadness, fear, all at once — is valid and makes sense. In a supportive, non-judgmental space, we'll process the loss, rebuild your sense of self, and navigate the practical and emotional weight of this transition together. My approach centers self-compassion, stability, and helping you move forward with intention.
You don't have to go through this alone. Let's take the first step toward rebuilding and a future that feels like your own.

Divorce
Delphine Marina Psychotherapy and Counselling
Registered Psychotherapist, Diploma Soul Centred Psychotherapy; MA(R.es) Cultural Studies; GradDip IT & Politics; BA(Hons)Human
Divorce is rarely just a legal or logistical process—it’s an emotional and psychological rupture that can shake your sense of identity, safety, and belonging. Whether you initiated the separation or not, it can bring up grief, guilt, relief, fear, and uncertainty all at once. You may be questioning who you are now, what comes next, or how to rebuild a life that feels whole again.
In therapy, we create space to grieve what was lost, honour what mattered, and make meaning of what has changed. Together, we can explore how to move forward with clarity, compassion, and greater self-trust—even in the midst of heartbreak.

Online in Wellington, New Zealand
Wellington is New Zealand's compact capital city and home to the national public service, creating a therapy landscape shaped by the particular stresses of government and policy careers — including burnout, moral injury, and the pressures of politically visible work. The city has a high concentration of university-educated professionals who generally view therapy as a normal part of self-care, and demand for longer-term therapeutic work is relatively strong. Wellington Regional Hospital provides institutional mental health services, with a private therapy community serving Thorndon, Kelburn, Mount Victoria, and the inner suburbs. Wellington's smaller size relative to Auckland means specialist therapist availability can be limited, and telehealth has become an important option for residents seeking a specific type of match.
