Mindi is a Person-Centred Counsellor/Kaiārahi for Manu Ka Rere, working alongside young people aged 10 to 25. With over 25 years of experience supporting children, families and school communities, she brings steadiness, warmth and deep respect to her counselling work. Mindi believes each client is the expert in their own life. Grounded in empathy, unconditional positive regard and genuineness, she creates a space where young people feel truly seen and heard, using creative pathways like art, writing and movement to support expression, healing and growth. Outside of work, she enjoys trying out the latest recipes, disc golf, and walking her two very energetic collies, Pippa and Loki.
