Kia ora, I'm Emie.
As a Registered Social Worker and Behavioural Health Consultant based in Tauranga, I work with people across Aotearoa via telehealth, offering therapeutic support that is grounded, practical, and genuinely responsive to you as a whole person.
My background spans community mental health, primary care, and social work, which means I bring more than one lens to each session. I don't just focus on how you're feeling right now; I'm interested in your story, your context, and what's getting in the way of the life you want.
I'm particularly passionate about early intervention and making mental health support accessible to people to prevent things getting to a point of overwhelm.
Come as you are right now, and lets work together to navigate life challenges in a collaborative and meaningful way.
