Kia ora and welcome, I’m Andy. I’m here to walk with you as you process your experiences.
There are times in our lives where it can help to have someone to talk to, who can listen with empathy and confidentiality.
I aim to help you access your knowledge of yourself, your struggles, your hopes, your choices and your next steps.
Come as you are and be met with acceptance and safety no matter your background, gender, cultural and spiritual identity, or ethnicity.
He wāhi haumaru tenei.

I adapt my approach to best suit your experiences, drawing on a range of person-centred and strengths-based approaches. Your beliefs, values and culture will be respected. We will look at the effects of your current experiences and collaborate to identify empowering pathways forwards that fit with your strengths and preferences.
Absolutely, it's important to feel prepared and comfortable. On my website under What To Expect you will find a photo gallery, more FAQs and a description about me.
Everything that we discuss is kept completely confidential. According to NZCCA and NZAC guidelines, there is a limit to confidentiality when there is risk of harm to either you or someone else. We will discuss what this means in our first phone call and in our first session, so you can ask any questions you may still have about this.
