Ms. Andrea Broad Bachelor of Counselling/ PGDipHSc-CBT

Tēnā koe, ko Andrea ahau. I offer both in-person and on-line counselling for those experiencing any type of emotional distress, including, anxiety, depressive mood, grief and loss, bullying, and relational challenges. I have a strong background working with young people from 12-24yrs, māori indigenous to Aotearoa, and pacific peoples. Having said this, I have worked with children from age 4yrs through to those aged 80yrs, from various ethnic and cultural backgrounds. I have studied, CBT, Hakomi Therapy, Child-Centered Play Therapy, Somatic Approaches to Trauma Therapy and currently EMDR (and more). All of the approaches I draw on, are grounded in a similar concept, which is the belief that all people have an innate drive to move towards wellbeing, and so, the potential to grow and heal. My role is to provide expert knowledge and support, that best fits every individual client.
