Counselling is based upon drawing inner wisdom from within; working with you to make decisions, listen to your story, and walk beside you. The most important part of therapy is feeling like there is a fit between you and the therapist. You should feel that you can open up and talk about anything you need to.

Appointments
- At Kristal Rose Counselling, the goal is to make you as comfortable as possible. This includes offering a range of online options. Initially, it is best if you can attend face-to-face while a relationship is established.
- Kristal will send you a client details form and a confidentiality form prior to your first session so you have time to read through this information. You will go over this information in your first session.
- If you are having an online appointment, please ensure you have privacy, and a safe space to have your appointment. It is important that you turn your phone off, and that you have no distractions. Using headphones can be helpful.
- If you are coming to counselling through the ACC sensitive claims pathway this website may be useful. https://www.findsupport.co.nz/. Simply let Kristal know when you are booking an appointment if you think this is, or could be, the pathway you require.
- Please ensure that you send through your address with your booking enquiry.
- Please be mindful that appointments that are not able to be attended will be charged full fee unless 48 hours notice is given.
Fees
- I offer a free 10 minute ‘meet and greet’ at my practice for clients if requested.
- Counselling is $130 for 50 minute session (inc GST). Please note that a first appointment is $160. This is a one-off fee.

Professional Supervision
- Kristal is a qualified supervisor with experience in working with supervisees in practice, as well as NGO and Allied Health and Registered Nurses (Mental health and Addiction).
- Professional Supervision helps to ensure that people working with people are given support to reflect and develop upon their professional selves.
- Supervision can serve a range of functions according to your profession and each person will come with individual objectives relevant to their role and organisation.
- Supervision differs to individual counselling. Supervisee’s set the agenda of sessions through bringing ideas with them to the supervision space.
- Please get in touch if you have a Supervision enquiry. Please note Kristal is not taking any NZAC supervisees currently.
