Solutions are possible

My name is Gail Bartlett-Harris. I offer a calm, reflective and non-judgemental space where solutions are possible. There is always a way through.

I’m a full member of The New Zealand Association of Counsellors (NZAC). I’m also a member of the MFCA and the NZAPP, and I’m accredited by the Family Court, Primary Health Organisation and Family Dispute Resolution.

In my practice Palmerston North Counselling I offer individual counselling, couples counselling and separation mediation. I am highly experienced in relationship counselling and have been working with couples on their relationships since 2004.

Life throws us some curve balls! And sometimes having a professional non- judgemental ear is just what we need. We all need to be heard and ‘hearing’ is my speciality.

I can offer you a space to breathe; a space where judgement is suspended and through my compassion and understanding – solutions can be found. There is always a way through.

We can find a way through

Family and friends can be wonderful support; they want us to be happy – but sometimes their own knowledge of our situation and their own ideas of what would be best hinder their ability to really listen.

I can offer that professional ear. I can help you find your way through whatever it is you need to get through. Step into ‘The Quiet Room’ in central Palmerston North ; an open airy space that offers respite from the pressures and worries of the world outside.

Whether it is relationship counselling, separation mediation or individual counselling I offer a non-judgemental space and strategies to help you move forward. Contact me now – lets talk. We can find a way through.
