Kia ora. My name is Tiera (she/her). I live in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland but I am originally from Canada. I work face to face in Parnell and Papakura, and also provide online support. I work Monday through Thursday, with evening hours on Monday and Tuesdays. I have over 7 years experience as a counsellor, with a focus on adolescents and young adults. I also have experience working with adults and a range of backgrounds. I am a safe and competent provider for LGBTTQIA+ people, and culturally responsive in my approach. I am drawn to this work as I understand how important it is to have someone you trust to support you. I value relationships and want you to feel heard and validated, as well as for you to learn coping skills and strategies to help you through this time.
