About Franciska (she/her)
The desire to reflect light into dark places and to help people heal is what drives me.
I was 35 when the world around me came crumbling down. After years of trying to be everything to everyone, I found myself burned out and suffering from a variety of emotional and physical health issues. I was stressed, distressed, and desperately unhappy. Then my marriage ended and my vision of what the future entailed, completely wiped away.
Enter grief. Then survival mode. Followed by healing. And a process of transformation.
I learned the importance of having balance in life. Then found my calling.
Today I have the pleasure of helping others manage and overcome grief, trauma, anxiety, and phobias; and empower people to restore their self-esteem, confidence, health, wellbeing, and better relationships.
I pride myself in my authenticity and unconditional positive regard towards everyone I have the privilege of meeting. As such I have built my practice around inclusiveness and feel blessed to have earned the trust of members of the Rainbow and LGBTQI+ communities.
I work with adults from all over Aotearoa New Zealand, so that they may enjoy better, more fulfilling lives.
"I had really lost the ability to be there for myself and didn't know how to get out of an unhealthy relationship. After just three sessions with Franciska, I felt stronger, more in control and had real clarity on what I wanted and deserved. The tools that she gave me to move forward and out of that relationship were so helpful and relevant to my situation. I am finally excited about my future again! Thank you Franciska for your knowledge, relatability, humour and warmth! I would recommend you in a heartbeat. "

"Franciska is consistently warm, friendly and engaging. She always treated me with the utmost respect, never pushing me to talk about anything before I felt ready to. I can honestly say that some of the insights I gained during my sessions with Franciska have been life-changing, and as a member of the LGBTQI+ community, I felt completely safe and free to be myself with her. I absolutely recommend Franciska to anyone wanting a kind and empathetic counsellor who will also help you to achieve real change."
