Blair Schulze

Registered Psychotherapist

BArch (Hons)

MHSc (Psychotherapy, Hons)

I’m currently fully booked and unfortunately not able to take new clients.

Statement of Purpose

I offer counselling and psychotherapy in Auckland and have over twenty years experience working in private practice, community settings and the public health system. 

It’s important you feel comfortable with your therapist so my approach is confidential, friendly and non-judgmental.

After creating a good connection, some of the key aspects to recovery are; improving self awareness, developing better cognitive, behavioural & mindfulness skills, and then improving self worth and the ability to be kinder to yourself. By increasing all these abilities, people recover from their issues and go on to live fulfilling lives.

I believe with the right therapy the vast majority of people can overcome or successfully manage the issues in their lives and it is a real privilege to help people emerge from their difficult times.

Blair’s specialties:

• Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
• Sex and Pornography addictions
• Anxiety
• Depression
• Relationship issues

Experience:

I have twenty years experience working in private practice, public and community mental health, including working for ADHB, WDHB, The Mensana Clinic and Youthline.

Approaches and modalities

I use a range of modern, proven approaches and will use the approach that is best suited to the specific issue or individual. These include Exposure & Response Prevention (E/RP) for OCD, Mindfulness based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), Internal Family Systems and Emotionally Focussed Therapy (EFT).

Counselling and psychotherapy usually address several spheres of someone’s life. These often include:

• offering a confidential place to talk through issues
• reducing and stopping compulsive & addictive habits
• learning to manage difficult thoughts & emotions
• developing healthy coping strategies
• building mindfulness skills
• building healthy self worth & self acceptance
