Stress & Work - Relationship counselling Whangarei

I offer in-person counselling for individuals and couples from a cozy boathouse studio in central Whangarei, also worldwide online counselling in English, Swedish and Estonian. My therapy style is solution focused CBT mixed with other styles I find useful in personal growth. My areas of interest include couples therapy, migration and cultural issues, stress and anxiety, relationship challenges, life transitions, communication difficulties and self-esteem concerns.

I am a Cognitive Behavioural Therapist and a Family/Couples Counsellor. I can provide both in-person and online counselling. My in-person sessions are by home visits or at another agreed location. My practise is multi-cultural and inter-faith. Born in Iran, lived in Jamaica, married to an African and now in New Zealand, my life is an example of crossing boundaries to understand, accept and respect all cultures.

A key ingredient of my (couples) coaching style is that YOU are the focus of our time together. It's YOUR life after all and YOU are the one that will be making any changes in YOUR life and relationship. Our sessions together are open, safe and confidential. At the end of the day, your honesty with yourself is a vital part of your growth, and I will do all I can to facilitate that in our time together.
