Hello, thank you for being here.

​

I’m Bree, a trained counsellor and coach. That’s just a title though. Who I really am is curious by nature, deeply people-focused, and drawn to the inner and outer landscapes that inform how we live and relate to the world around us.

 

My work over the years has grown from both formal training and lived experience, and from a long-standing value in people feeling seen, heard, and understood.

​

I believe that real change begins with a combination of being fed up (!), being brave enough to try something different, and then slowing down and listening more deeply to what is really going on.

The Being Way is an invitation into a different time and depth — a space where you can soften, be heard in a new way, and experience perspective shifts and aha moments that ripple through your inner world and your outer life. Clients often describe feeling like a “weight has been lifted,” feeling clearer, freer, and more connected to themselves after our work together.

​

Outside of my work, I live in Warkworth, New Zealand with my partner James and our cat Teddy. We’re slowly transforming our home into a family and a sanctuary, bit by bit. I look after myself by spending time in nature, having baths, going for big walks, reading a good book, spending time with animals and my family, moving my body, setting aside time for mindfulness, writing, or learning something new. I’m often find myself wondering about life, people, places, patterns, and meaning.

​

If you’re ready to meet yourself more fully and create change from the inside out, I’d be honoured to support you.

 

You can book a session via the Services page, choosing the offering that feels most aligned for you.
