Counselling and Life Coaching

Counselling and Life Coaching sessions are confidential, available to individuals and couples, and conform to ethical guidelines. Copies of our Ethics and Complaints Guidelines brochure is available at AWC. Counselling can assist with grief and separation, managing life changes or crisis, "coming out", identity and sexual orientation issues, self-esteem, relationships and intimacy, family difficulties, conflict resolution or abuse and violence. Joan Prairie is our lesbian counsellor offering appointments to lesbian clients. Counselling sessions are by appointment. Fees are negotiated on a sliding scale of $30-$80 taking account of your income. We are now offering Life Coaching with the addition of Lucy Daykin to our team. Life Coaching is about considering all areas of your life; looking at where you are now, and where you want to be. Lucy works out of the Auckland Women's Centre on Monday nights and Saturday mornings at a reduced rate of $80 per session unwaged or $100 per session waged. Please call Lucy directly to book in.
