Description

A Girl Called Hope is passionate about strengthening the resilience, self-esteem and wellbeing of those in Aotearoa. For those seeking to strengthen their wellbeing, engagement with us is through Wellbeing Skills Courses, Counselling and Coaching.

Wellbeing courses both online and in-person offer skills and tools to strengthen wellbeing and are open to anyone in the community. Counselling and Coaching is for those who require additional support to remain actively involved with whānau, community living, education and employment and to retain or regain control of their own wellbeing journey.

Through our holistic avenues of engagement we provide reflection of one's own journey, learning healthy coping tools, gaining positive life skills, and opportunities to develop healthy connections with others.  We do this by providing safe space to heal and strengthen based on the Te Whare Tapa Wha model of health.  

Our desire is that all who engage with us would experience unconditional love and transformative change, resulting in freedom; this is our Christian environment, our kaupapa.  Our practice is informed by evidence-based models and theories such as CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy), Mindfulness skills learnt in DBT (Dialectical Behavioural Therapy) and the Strength Based approach.

Staff

We are a multi-disciplinary team with suitable qualifications and experience for the roles undertaken.  The team roles include Wellbeing Coach, Course Facilitator, Counsellor and Courses Administrator.  Therapeutic staff all engage in regular professional supervision to ensure a high standard of ethical practice.
