Kia ora, my name is Rebekah, I'm 31 and I am a qualified counsellor based in Christchurch. I offer in-person sessions in Christchurch and online counselling throughout New Zealand, working with a vast range of ages and presenting challenges. I strive to provide an environment that feels safe, welcoming and not too serious where our sessions not only consist of exploring your issue at depth, but also allow for moments of laughter and genuine connection to naturally emerge alongside our work. I aim to provide not only tools, but also a trusting client/counsellor relationship that in itself can also facilitate growth. Having been to counselling myself, I know how it feels to sit in the clients chair. This enhances my practice where I can meet my clients with a lived understanding of the vulnerability and emotional honesty required.

I offer a warm, non-judgemental space where you can be yourself and work through what matters most to you. My whole-person approach supports both mind and body, combining genuine connection with practical, evidence-based tools to help you build resilience, confidence, and wellbeing. Ek nooi graag Afrikaanssprekende kliënte uit om my te kontak. Dankie Sharon, dit is so wonderlik om uiteindelik hulp te kan kry en myself in my eie taal uit te druk. Dit is so moeilik om dit in Engels te doen as ek soveel het en soveel emosies deur my laat kom dat ek te verward raak. Om na jou toe te kom en so veilig en verstaan te voel en Afrikaans te kan praat, is vir my van onskatbare waarde.

Sensitive Claims Counselling Seeking support after experiencing trauma or distressing events can feel daunting — but you don’t have to go through it alone. I value authenticity and self-worth and believe that the relationship we have with ourselves is the most important one we will ever have. Whether you’re going through a difficult season, finding your footing in challenging relationships, or needing a safe space to process your experiences, I will walk alongside you and remind you of your inherent value. Through ACC’s Sensitive Claims pathway, you may be eligible for funded counselling support to help you work through the impacts of past experiences. Sessions through ACC are free for you as a client. You can begin with two initial sessions to get to know each other and talk about what you need. After this, we can move towards completing a supported assessment, which is a gentle process to better understand your goals and how ACC can support your healing journey. I offer a confidential space.
