My name is Celine and I am a Clinical Psychologist and I have been working in the field for around 10 years, both in public community mental health (New Zealand and the UK), as well as in private practice. I hold a doctorate in Clinical Psychology from the University of Auckland.
I am trained primarily in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (including mindfulness informed CBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. In addition I have gained expertise in Trauma-informed therapy.
It’s an honour to be able to walk alongside people when they are in a time in their life when things feel particularly hard, they have big questions about who they are, or are trying to find meaning and purpose in their life.
I believe that good therapy happens in the context of a trusting relationship, and that this is where my strength lies.
I am warm, level-headed, empathetic, and non-judgmental, and I strive to work collaboratively, flexibly, and creatively with my clients.
I want people to walk out of my sessions feeling supported, safe, and more equipped with psychological tools in their kete [basket] to deal with their challenges.
