Sonya McCullough

I'm so glad you're here, I know it takes a huge amount of courage to begin searching for a therapist or counsellor. I integrate the use of Havening Techniques, Brainspotting (developed from EMDR) and Emotional Freedom technique (EFT tapping) and practice counselling services in Christchurch New Zealand and online sessions. 

Working in the area of trauma I found clients would continue to experience symptoms and talk therapy was taking a long time to make changes the individuals were wanting in their lives. I found out about psychosensory therapies and have found Havening Techniques, Brainspotting and EFT tapping helps individuals heal from their past and achieve their personal goals faster than talk therapy.  

I work to create a safe space for you to explore how to regain your wholeness.  My work can help you transform stuck emotional patterns and build new skills.  Havening offers a kind yet responsive technique to use when working with sensitive issues, anxieties or lived experiences whilst generating effective and profound change. Whilst we can't change events that occur in our lives, we can change our response and perspective of the event. ​I believe that individuals have the power within to heal themselves, but at times have difficulty accessing their own inner strength. I am here to help you access your own natural resources to navigate difficult times. I want to help you to achieve your goals as quickly as possible and am happy to work short-term or long-term.

l assist people to make the changes they are seeking to live more fully and engage in life in positive ways. I am integrating psychosensory therapies to help individuals experiencing trauma, intense emotions, anxiety, stress, grief and loss, chronic pain, addictions and other blocks to personal growth.  This has allowed clients to experience the changes they want in their lives and to feel more alive, happy and peaceful in the present.
