Jenny Van Der Schoot - Counselling & Psychotherapy

Welcome to Jenny Van Der Schoot - Counselling & Psychotherapy, located at 24 Rama Road in Auckland, New Zealand. Our institution is an establishment that focuses on providing health services and is a point of interest for those seeking professional counselling and psychotherapy.

In light of the current Covid-19 situation, we offer in-person sessions at Alert Levels 1 & 2, while online sessions are available at Alert Levels 3 & 4, ensuring that we can continue to support our clients during these challenging times.

At Jenny Van Der Schoot - Counselling & Psychotherapy, we have a passion for working with both individuals and couples who are seeking to explore and address various aspects of their lives and relationships. Our approach is unpretentious, recognizing that hurts and distress can stem from societal influences, injustices, as well as expected and unexpected events. We firmly believe that navigating tough times can lead to personal growth and wisdom.

Located in multicultural Auckland, we take great joy in celebrating and affirming the diversity of lifestyle and relationship choices that exist within our community.

Our specialisms include depression, trauma and abuse recovery, grief and loss, sexual diversity, migration, life changes, relationship dilemmas, stress, and anxiety. With a broad background in training, ranging from humanistic client-centered counselling to mental health support and psychoanalytic psychotherapy, we work organically and fluidly, always striving to meet your unique needs and the issues you wish to address.

Having migrated from Holland to Britain, then Canada, and finally settling in Aotearoa/New Zealand, our therapist, Jenny Van Der Schoot, brings a wealth of experience and understanding to her practice. Her two adult children were raised in Tai Tokerau/Northland, further deepening her connection to the local community.

With over twenty years of experience as a Psychotherapist and Counsellor, Jenny has also provided supervision to other clinicians, health professionals, and students. She has worked extensively with the Northland District Health Board for over ten years, gaining a wide range of clinical experiences in mental health.

Since 1995, Jenny has worked part-time at two established Auckland therapy centers while also running her private practice. Since 2008, she has been fully dedicated to her private practice, ensuring that she can provide the utmost care and attention to her clients.

Conveniently located in Point Chevalier, our practice offers a quiet area with easy parking. It is readily accessible via public transport and the motorway, making it convenient for clients to reach us.
