Are you facing personal challenges, feeling stuck in familiar patterns or wanting to make positive changes in your life? Perhaps you're struggling with stress, uncertainty or difficult emotions, or you're looking for greater clarity about your goals and direction.
I'm Debbie (Debs), a counsellor and NLP Master Practitioner based in Rotorua. I offer individual counselling and coaching to support you in understanding yourself, working through challenges and exploring new possibilities for personal and professional growth.
My approach is wholistic and focused on helping you discover your own resources and potential.
How I can help you
I work with people facing a range of personal and professional challenges, including:
- Stress, anxiety and feeling overwhelmed
- Low self-confidence and insecurity
- Relationship and family difficulties
- Feeling stuck or wanting to make changes
- Personal development and self-discovery
- Career challenges and professional growth
- Difficulties with values, beliefs and expectations
- Finding direction and setting personal goals
- Exploring your potential and new opportunities
Whether you're dealing with a particular difficulty or simply feel ready for something different, we can explore what matters most to you.
Counselling and coaching – Finding new possibilities
I have a passion for supporting people in their personal and professional development, helping them navigate challenges and recognise their achievements along the way.
My focus is not only on the difficulties you're experiencing, but also on what you would like to create in your life.
Perhaps you've found yourself thinking, "I need something to change," or "I want to explore other opportunities to grow."
Together, we can look at where you are now, where you would like to be and what may be preventing you from moving forward.
I aim to guide you in a resourceful and supportive way, helping you explore different perspectives and discover possibilities you may not have considered before.
Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and personal change
As an NLP Master Practitioner, I incorporate Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) into my work alongside counselling and other approaches to personal change.
An important part of my approach is exploring the beliefs, values and patterns that influence how you see yourself and respond to situations.
We all develop familiar ways of thinking and behaving throughout our lives. Sometimes these patterns are helpful, while at other times they may limit the choices we feel are available to us.
In our sessions, we can explore whether these patterns are still serving you and consider different ways of approaching your challenges.
My aim is to support you in developing greater awareness, making choices that reflect your values and working towards your personal goals.
A wholistic approach to your wellbeing
I believe it's important to consider the different aspects of your life rather than focusing on one difficulty in isolation.
Your relationships, personal experiences, professional responsibilities and aspirations can all play a part in the challenges you face.
My approach is collaborative. I aim to support you in gaining a clearer understanding of your circumstances and identifying steps that feel meaningful and achievable for you.
Whether you're looking for emotional support, personal growth or professional development, we can work together to explore your next steps.

Client Experience – Counselling and coaching with Debbie
I am truly thankful for Deb's help in transforming my life, how to change my thinking, and what's really important to me.
I had tried different counsellors and therapists but all had sent me backwards and had me reliving my traumas where I had become the most depressed that I had been.
I am so thankful that we ended up working together.
If you are in the position where you're wanting change for yourself, to be better and do better for yourself, I highly recommend Debs.
The tools Ive learnt and have got to practice to date has helped me immensely and I truly believe the quality of my life improved greatly since.
If I had not met Deb's and worked with her when I did, I don't know where I'd be without.
