My name is Gorgan Ng and I've been working with teenagers or young adults who identify as part of the geek culture or have an interest in gaming, anime, or superheroes. They may be struggling with issues such as wanting change in life, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, difficulty fitting in, or a sense of isolation. They need a safe and understanding space where they can freely express their interests and experiences without judgment. Their goal is to integrate the skills and insights they have gained from their geeky hobbies into their daily lives, improving their self-confidence, social connections, and overall well-being.

Life comes with its share of pleasant and unpleasant experiences. Sometimes it helps if you have someone to talk through how these experiences are impacting you. This is where I can be of help. I offer individualised psychological care and support for a number of mental health disorders, trauma, abuse and relationship concerns.

Joanne Meldrum is a Counsellor and specialised practicing Psychiatric Nurse. The tools that Joanne provide are based on the four dimensions of well-being - Mind, Body, Social and Spirit. These dimensions are carefully considered when facilitating healing with clients, with the intention of improving self-awareness, confidence and compassion. When we make meaning of conflicting emotions, behaviour and thought processes, and acknowledge the effect of the pattern, we reclaim value. Joannes approach is to provide a framework and skills to practice that influences acceptance and responsibility to face new aspects of loving.

Life can bring challenges that require a space to talk things over. This is where Counselling can be beneficial; by supporting you to make sense of the things you are struggling with, find ways to cope, and discover strategies to help. I aim to provide a safe place for you to explore these various aspects of yourself, including both strengths and difficulties. Life Coaching can also be helpful in showing you a way forward, clarifying your goals and values and helping you to explore your talents and strengths. It can show us where we might be stuck and make us aware of old patterns of bahaviour that might be holding us back.

I offer both short-term, solution-focused counselling, and long-term psychotherapeutic support using a client-centered and strength-based approach that draws on mindfulness, the body-feelings-mind connection and neuroscience. I help clients develop self-understanding, a calm and trusting relationship with themselves, and feel empowered to take positive action in their life. We will work together to identify your existing resources, and I can supplement them with professional insights, reframes and a wide range of tools, accumulated over my years in practice, to provide tailored additional strategies as required.

I offer a warm, accepting, and confidential space where you feel listened to. I have experience supporting people with wide-ranging issues including; relationship challenges, feeling disconnected, navigating life changes, loss, identity struggles, and low self-worth; and people who identify as highly sensitive or neurodiverse. Psychotherapy allows us to explore why we feel and behave the way we do and can help us learn to manage our emotions. Developing an understanding of ourselves and our patterns can give us new perspectives, help us make meaningful changes, and may help us accept things we can’t change.

Hi, I'm a registered psychologist with 20 years experience of working with clients. I take a holistic approach (spiritual, emotional, physical and cognitive), and recognise that we all have intersecting identities. I'm interested in my clients’ individual story and believe that they are the expert on themselves. We are all unique and it's a privilege to work with a client to support their sense of self and wellbeing. I offer short and long term therapy from a lens that is cross cultural and draws upon a range of approaches and theories. I am also registered with ACC (New Zealand) as a provider (ISSC Treatment).

Kia ora, welcome, and 你好! Psychotherapy starts with a wish to discover the lost or submerged parts of the self, or to understand why events, situations, and relationships result in heartbreak, disappointment, frustration, annoyance, etc., or to change a pattern within yourself and your behaviour or a dynamic with others. To start this soulful exploration together takes commitment, courage, and curiosity. I hope to venture with you together, by providing a sensitive, kind, confidential, connective space.

I am a psychotherapist, a supervisor, and a sex therapist; these disciplines intertwine and inform my clinical practice every day. My approach is psychodynamic, which means that you and I will work together, which will help us to unravel the meanings and interpretations that sometimes are affecting the way we see our life and the patterns we find ourselves in. When psychotherapy meets sex therapy, this tool encompasses all and every aspect of a person’s expressions of life.

Now open to new clients, visit my personal website for detailed info and my availability. While being a human isn’t always easy, there are ways to make it easier and more fulfilling - anyone can learn to make significant improvements to their lives and relationships with insight, new tools, a bit of humour, and the right support. I particularly enjoy working with people who experience anxiety or are too hard on themselves, and anyone ready and willing to do the work of making changes to patterns that no longer serve them.
