For compassion & strict confidentiality

Pakuranga Counselling Centre counsellors deal with a broad spectrum of counselling issues (see below). Many of our counsellors have specialised areas of expertise as well as their work in general counselling. Our counsellors work within the Code of Ethics set down by the NZ Association of Counsellors or NZ Christian Counsellors Association, of which confidentiality is paramount.

We offer a variety of counselling services to individuals, couples, children and families. Our services include, but are not limited to: 

• General Counselling
• Stress Management / Burnout
• Anxiety / Panic Attacks
• Addiction
• Grief & Loss
• Abuse - physical, sexual, emotional, spiritual
• Anger Management

Our goal is to provide personalised care to every client and tailor our approach to meet their unique needs. 

Our pricing schedule includes a $20 subsidy for your first session, bringing the cost of that session to $85. The full fee of $105 per session applies for subsequent visits, unless you are a couple.

Fees for couples, defined as two adults 18+, the fees are $105 for the first session thereafter $125 for a 60 min session, slightly more for an extended session of 75 mins. We accept EFTPOS or cash; we do not have credit card facilities.

The fee is payable on the day of the appointment, talk to us if you have circumstances of hardship, we may be able to assist. We also provide further subsidies in cases where there is genuine financial hardship. 

Subsidies

We invite you to speak to our receptionist or counsellors if you are facing financial hardship. We try not to turn away anyone in genuine need of counselling. We are committed to making counselling affordable to all who need it (as each person's circumstances are different). 

Work and Income

You may be eligible for subsidised counselling services through Work & Income, if you are already entitled to a benefit or if your income is under a certain level. We have the forms and can assist you with these.
