Neuro-affirming creative therapy for people who think differently

Kia ora, I'm Lee

A creative therapist, a coach, a dad, a nature lover, a coffee nerd and a dog person

I help creative, sensitive, self-curious souls to better understand themselves, navigate their pain and joy, build self-esteem, cultivate presence and create their own calm amongst the chaos.

My practice is neuro-affirming, gentle and inclusive. My approach is grounded in curiosity and playfulness and built on a solid foundation of compassion, humility and trust. My methods are client-led and evidence based, backed by solid training and professional qualifications, interwoven with decades of lived experience.

Life is hard. Home, school, relationships, parenting, work - trying to navigate it all on your own can be confusing, stressful and overwhelming. You don’t have to do it by yourself.

Let’s figure it out together.

Who I work with

I work with people of all ages and from all walks of life, but the majority of my clients tend to be people who've always felt a little bit different from everyone else. That could include:

• Kids or teenagers with wild imaginations, boundless energy and insatiable curiosity
• Humans who make stuff: creatives, artists, designers, engineers, writers, and thinkers
• Neurodivergent people with or without a formal diagnosis
• Innovators and instigators who gag when they hear 'that's the way we've always done it'
• Those who don’t meet society's neurotypical expectations or fit neatly into everyone else’s boxes
• The daydreamers, doodlers, punks, pirates and poets

I help folks to understand and appreciate themselves. To work with their brains instead of trying to force themselves to be like everyone else. To embrace their unique skills, harness their strengths and corral their innate creativity as they reconnect with their own identity, values and self-worth.

If this sounds like your kind of jam, then let’s have a kōrero - no pressure, no obligation and no cost.
