Personal Coaching & Therapy
Discover what's right for you
Sometimes we know we need to do something differently, but we need a hand to figure out what and how.
Imagine positive change happening in your life, now:
- Letting go of whatever isn't working for you
- Moving away from unwanted thoughts, feelings, and behaviours
- Gaining more flexibility and therefore more choice
- Tuning into what excites you
- Taking steps in your right direction for living your chosen purpose
It may be easier than you think
Working at your pace, together we’ll discover what you need now.
We’ll take a good look at your life, celebrating your strong points and finding useful ways for doing what you truly want, and being who and how you want to be.
Along the way, this might include:
- Prioritising living well
- Identifying and dissolving barriers
- Releasing trauma – enhancing mana
- Clarifying your values, skills and purpose
- Accepting and celebrating being you
Teamwork makes it happen
You know you best. Combining your inner knowledge with my training in how minds work means you have a winning team. You’ll learn more about yourself and how to get comfortable with your own thinking and emotions, while moving away from what you don’t want and towards what really makes you happy.
To help get you there, I utilise NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) principles and techniques. NLP focuses on how we are communicating with ourselves and others (both consciously and unconsciously), revealing the underlying thoughts which drive us. These thoughts link to our beliefs about ourselves, others, and the world we live in, and push our emotional buttons, determining how we feel and what we do.
NLP works with the structure of thinking (or how we 'do' thinking) – images and sounds
in our minds and sensations in our bodies – to bring
about faster, easier change.
Session Information
Length
Session length is typically 1 hour; there is some flexibility if we find you need a little longer.
Fees and Funding
My fee is $140 per session.
If your first step is to overcome the limitation of cost, let's see if we can do that together; enquiries about funding/payment options and low-income discounts are welcome.
Number of sessions
How many sessions you might want or need is one of those questions like 'how long is a piece of string?'. There are too many factors to make an accurate prediction, however NLP is generally a brief intervention therapy. This means many issues are commonly resolved with less than six sessions, and sometimes with just one or two. (If you're looking for longer term support or transformation, we can do that too.)
Sessions can be spaced weekly, fortnightly, or longer – ultimately, it’s about the right pace for you, to get the results you want.
A safe place
My home-based office is a relaxed, comfortable, and private environment, only ten minutes from central Christchurch. If you prefer, we can meet online via Zoom.
