Narrative Pathways - Counselling, Supervision & Consultancy
About the Business
Welcome to Narrative Pathways - Counselling, Supervision & Consultancy, located at 10 Fontenoy Street in Auckland, New Zealand. We are an establishment that focuses on providing specialized counselling services for boys, teenagers, men, and families.
Our male counsellor, based in Auckland, offers tailored counselling specifically designed for boys, teenagers, and young men. However, we also work with women, families, and couples who find our services beneficial in achieving the changes they desire.
Having grown up in the Waikato as the youngest of three boys, our counsellor has a deep understanding of the challenges faced by boys and young men. He has been living in Auckland since 2008, following years of experience overseas and in small-town New Zealand.
With a commitment to ongoing professional development, our counsellor has extensive training and experience in the field. He began his journey in counselling in 1994 and has held various counselling positions both in New Zealand and abroad. Additionally, he teaches counselling in the Social Work degree program at Unitec while also seeing his own counselling and supervision clients in Mt Albert.
At Narrative Pathways, we believe in the importance of finding the right fit between counsellor and client. We encourage you to "check us out" and see if our approach resonates with you. Our clinical practice incorporates Narrative Therapy, as well as other therapeutic approaches such as CBT, Motivational Interviewing, Art Therapy, Psychodrama, Hakomi (mindfulness psychotherapy), Imago Couples process, and Compassionate Communication (NVC), depending on what best suits your needs.
Our specialist counselling interests lie in working with young men and boys, exploring masculinity, sexuality and gender identity, parenting, and utilizing Narrative Therapy to overcome problems and provide supervision. We have advanced training and experience from England, New Zealand, and the USA, ensuring that we stay up-to-date with the latest practices and techniques.
Appointments are available on Fridays between 9 am and 5.30 pm, although other days and times can be arranged upon request.
If your employer offers an Employee Assistance Programme (EAP), you may be eligible for free sessions. We are available under EAP contracts with Raise, Benestar, Vitae, and Instep. If you have experienced sexual assault or abuse, you may be eligible for ACC funded counselling, as we are contracted to Youthline as part of their ACC Counselling team. Additionally, if you receive a benefit, you can apply through your GP for WINZ to subsidize your counselling sessions with us.
Our standard fee for individual counselling appointments is $140 per one-hour session. However, we understand that financial situations may vary, and we are open to negotiating a fee between $100 and $140 to make it more manageable for you. For couples or longer sessions, such as 90 minutes, rates can be negotiated upon request. We also offer a limited number of reduced-rate counselling agreements for those facing financial difficulties. Please feel free to discuss this option with us.
We also provide other services at negotiated rates that reflect our costs and preparation/delivery time. We are flexible and willing to find a solution that works for both parties.
In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, we prioritize your comfort and safety, as well as our own. We have implemented health and safety practices to ensure a safe environment for everyone involved.
We look forward to meeting you and working together to help you regain control of your life and overcome any challenges that may be impacting you or your loved ones. Contact us today to schedule an appointment and begin your journey towards positive change.
