Hello, Kia ora, Im Mel Rigby and Im a counsellor based in New Plymouth, Taranaki.  I come from Foxton, grew up in Palmerston North and I whakapapa to Ngati Raukawa ki te Tonga (Horowhenua).  I offer face to face counselling in the New Plymouth/ North Taranaki region but I am also an online provider throughout the country.  I am available Mon - Thurs 9am - 3pm.  I am a counsellor with over 25 years experience in working with adults, children and families in mental health, risk and trauma and I have been in private practice for the past 4 years.  I bring a culmination of my learning, my experience and my compassion to work with people in ways that make a difference.  I believe everyone has a right to tell their stories in safe places and receive support that is relevant to them.
