I have completed my masters in narrative therapy - which is my preferred approach to our work together. Narrative therapy is based on the idea that our personal stories shape our identities, relationships, and behaviour. I offer therapy sessions online using Google Meet. I'm available Tuesday to Friday, 9am- 5:30pm Kia ora, ko Alex tōku ingoa. I am a therapist based in Ōtepoti. I take a narrative-informed approach to therapy, which means I believe that the cultural stories, labels, and societal practices we encounter shape how we perceive ourselves and interact with the world. In our sessions, we will examine these dominant narratives and work together to uncover new, alternative stories for you to experience and understand yourself. I have experience working with people who are struggling with a wide range of difficulties, including trauma, PTSD, sexualised abuse and relationships. I work with people aged 18 and older.
