ABOUT

Kia ora, my name is Jesse I specialize in trauma, mental health, non-violence education, couple's and relationship counselling. To do this I look at hard emotions, human connection, and mental health. In addition, as a man of faith, I can offer you a safe place to discuss your faith and your beliefs. I am deeply passionate about human connection. Remember, you are the expert of your life, and I am the facilitator of change.

​

I have a particular interest in creating a safe space for people to come and connect and share personal life stories of success and failure. I am aware that we all have history stories from yesterday that inform us today. Let's create new chapters or editions of preferred stories. I will hold onto hope on your behalf and notice the creation of what's preferred. 

​

Life is such a journeyed experience. I enjoy creating a shoulder-to-shoulder style of working together. To do this I utilize skills and techniques borrowed from Narrative Therapy, Person Centered Skills, CBT, Motivational Interviewing and Strengths Perspective Skills. I enjoy building quick rapport and trust and a space of home away from home. I enjoy building new identity and a way of being in the world. I use things like contracting honesty together so things like authenticity and integrity flourish within the work we do together.

​

I make a conscious effort to connect with the humanness of who you are. I understand that part of the human experience is one of human emotion and the challenges this can create. Let's look at the lens in which you view life through, and maybe we can make an adjustment. If you're ready for something different let's journey together and discover hope of a future desired.

​

Call me or email me today to book in and let's chat about life. I charge $120 for an individual session and $185 for a couple's session. Hours of work are Monday's and Friday's from 9:30am - 6:30pm.
