Meet Tony

Meet Tony

I'm a 56-year-old kiwi bloke, happily married for 20+ years.

I'm also a Dad to an Adult Daughter.

My interests include Cycling, Wine collecting and People.

I love the Waikato, and Hamilton has been my home for the last 10 years.​

The Construction Industry was originally my profession, but after many years feeling unchallenged, I added to my Resume.

Around 1997, I began training in the area of Psychological well-being. (I wanted to know how I/We tick). I was encouraged to continue training more specifically in the area of Counselling and Psychotherapy. I completed my training as a Counsellor, and immediately after, continued training in Transactional Analysis Psychotherapy.

Currently,  I offer therapy from my Private Practice location. I absolutely love my work.

Due to related training, I can also provide Workplace Consultation, Public speaking and Bespoke Workshops.

All my work and approaches are relationally focused.

I also have extensive training in the area of trauma. 

If any of these things interest you , I'd love to hear from you.

I think these things matter ...

  • I think it is very important for a Client to be able to track what is happening in therapy. My approach includes explaining why I suggest ideas or ask questions, in the hope that a client doesn't leave a session with ' I don't know what that was'. I encourage client's to ask questions.
     

  • Fun in Therapy can be possible at times and laughter is welcomed, as much as tears. I approach my practice with a real-world attitude, underpinned by solid training and theory. 
     

  • Personal and Professional development and Supervision are foundational and obligatory for any practicing Therapist. I attend all of these regularly. I am also a member of two related organisation's Nationally and Internationally.
