I’m a Person-Centred Counsellor/Kaiārahi for Manu Ka Rere, working alongside young people aged 10–25. With over 25 years of experience supporting children, families and school communities, I bring steadiness, warmth and deep respect to my counselling work. I believe each client is the expert in their own life – grounded in empathy, unconditional positive regard and genuineness, I create 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 I enjoy trying out the latest recipes, disc golf, and walking my two very energetic collies, Pippa and Loki.
