Counselling

At Harmony Pasifika, counselling is a supportive and personalised experience tailored to meet your unique needs.

How does counselling work?

Harmony Pasifika has an experienced and varied team of counsellors available for individual and couples/relationship counselling. We can provide general counselling, alcohol and drug counselling, whānau and couples therapy, counselling for rangatahi, and anger management support.

We have male and female counsellors of Pakeha/Palangi and Tongan background. Our service speciality is Tongan language/fakatonga and Pasifika counselling.

How much does counselling cost?

Harmony Pasifika’s offers counselling at a low cost – and in some cases we offer four free sessions at the Onehunga Community Centre for people who live in the Maungakiekie Tamaki Community Board area.

If someone lives outside this area, we do use a sliding scale for payment. Please contact us so we can kōrero about your needs.
