Hi, my name is Mel.

About Me
I am originally from Wellington but moved to the beautiful Bay of Plenty about 20 years ago.
I am married to my husband of 25 years and have one son and three grandchildren.
As well as raising my son, I have had a varied career in management and sales before pursuing my lifelong dream of becoming a counsellor.
I enjoy reading good books, watching movies, keeping active, spending time with friends and family, eating out and walking in nature.
If you want to know more or make an appointment, feel free to contact me.
Online therapy
For those who choose online sessions, I use a very safe and respected online platform called Doxy Me which is a global telemedicine platform.
It is very easy to use.
Once we have made contact and booked a session I will send you the link and information.
