“Ive had the pleasure in 2022 or 2023 being a client for several weeks maybe 12? I cant remember but this place really supported me, helped fund my sessions when WINZ was used up, and they offered genuine support. I saw two counsellors, one for one session and another for much longer but both were professional and I felt like i was in good hands with both. Thank you.”

“Dr Yuhui Sun I can't thank you enough for the special, excellent care you have provided and for the unique gift you are to your patients.”

“I worked with Staf for sleep therapy and it has genuinely changed my life. I had severe insomnia for about a year, with years of on and off problems before that. I felt constantly tired, anxious about sleep, and stuck in a place where my personal and professional goals felt out of reach because I was so fatigued and consumed by my insomnia. I was in a state of despair. Working with Staf changed everything. The tools I learned in therapy were practical and grounded in the science of sleep. That information is not always easy to find, and a lot of mainstream advice is not tailored to people with insomnia. It becomes challenging to fix insomnia on your own if you do not fully understand how sleep actually works. That is why working with a trained therapist is so important, especially if you have been struggling for a long time. What I learned in sleep therapy finally made sense, and it helped my sleep improve significantly. Honestly, the therapy works and I would highly encourage it. My anxiety around sleep has eased, and my nights feel normal again. As my sleep improved, so did every part of my life. I managed to achieve all my personal and professional goals while going through sleep therapy. I feel healthier, more focused, excited about life and no longer controlled by my sleep issues. I am deeply grateful for the support I received. If you are considering sleep therapy, I highly encourage you to go for it. It gave me my life back.”

Debbie always makes you feel so comfortable and its almost like seeing a very wise friend every time you see her. I am so thankful for everything she has done for me and I strongly recommend her and her services, she truly is amazing.”

“I have really enjoyed my time with Prakash. I appreciate that his approach is holistic and is constructed to benefit the entire family. We loved that each session was focused on strategies and when we have implemented them we have seen very good results not only with the child that we attended for, but within our family. Of course there is no magical quick fix. You have to put work in at home. But we believe this kind of work is setting us up for years of improved communication with each other and more resilience in our children. Thank you Prakash.”

“Sherry has helped me in many ways. She helped me regulate and accept my emotions. She has helped me get to what is at the root of what is bothering me and be more honest about my feelings, whatever they may be, positive or negative. She has done this in a gentle way. I don’t feel judgement emanating from her, but sympathy and empathy. The way she has listened to and been accepting of me has helped me in my relationship with my husband and my daughter as I can more easily recognise, accept and be up front about how I am feeling. I am continuing to learn how to communicate these things with them. She has also helped me recognise when my husband is being loving towards me (or not). Another priceless thing she has encouraged me to do is pursue my interest in creative writing. The benefits to me of continuing with this passion are untold. Creative writing helps me be more assertive and confident about taking up my space in the world. I don’t know if I would be doing it if it wasn’t for my counselling sessions with her.”

“I came to Zen in January 2018, I was stuck using a variety of drugs but the most debilitating was a government funded opioid substitution treatment which I had been on since 2015 for a heroin addiction. No other detox would take me due to dual diagnosis and the severity of my history and significant chance of relapse, I felt like I would never be able to get off. I was suicidal, lost and had no hope of ever living clean. I had my assessment with Lance at the end of 2017 and we discussed some treatment options, it was decided that I would stay for three months and then look into moving on into a recovery house. I was scared, detox is an incredibly challenging part of the process for everyone involved. I remember my first day at Zen, the nurse at the time was just gorgeous and supported me massively, bringing me medication and helping me to be as comfortable as possible in A BEAUTIFUL removed location in West Auckland. The peer support staff were patient and kind (and I was pretty hard work over the first month of my stay) and they kept encouraging me to keep going aswell as delivering me their message of recovery and hope. I was taken out to do things to keep my mind busy, a special thanks to Chris who was always full of ideas to keep me occupied. (The massage therapist Jodi is just beautiful) Post detox I stayed for another two months where I learnt to eat, exercise and function again as a human being, and I started to get involved in 12 step fellowships which have been a huge support to my recovery to this day. I cannot begin to express my gratitude for everything Lance and the team at Zen have helped me gain back, and the patience and understanding I received as an addict in early recovery. I love you all so so so so so so much and without the support of this place my recovery would be without a home. I plan to keep going back to Zen regularly to stay in contact and I've made life long friends. Could not recommend enough! And I'm so excited for what the future has to hold for this revolutionary approach on detox and wellness. I'm an incredibly grateful addict today because without my disease I wouldn't know what real freedom and happiness looks like. Give it a go, you might just find a life worth living.”

“Claire is amazing ❤️she is kind, funny, personable and makes you feel comfortable in your sessions with her. Her space is lovely and comfortable! She’s helped me a lot in the last 5 weeks. Forever grateful.”

“Sabine has been amazing! She listened to everything I had to say without judgement and gave me the tools to help myself. She does not sugar coat anything but is still very kind and compassionate. I gained a lot from just listening to her and am truly grateful to her for helping me move on in a far more positive and joyful way. Contacting her was the best thing I have done for myself.”
