About Me
My name is Kay Ingamells. I was born in Canada, emigrated to the UK in 1972 and then emigrated to New Zealand in 2001. I live and work in West Auckland. I am a mother of one delightful son and an aunt to two nieces and one nephew. I love to walk the ranges and the beaches of West Auckland and to potter around in the garden and kitchen with my son and partner.
Experience & Qualifications
I have been working with individuals, children, young people and families since 1990. I began my career working with troubled young people and children and their parents in specialist agencies and spent six years working in child and adolescent mental health. For the past five years I have lectured in counselling in higher education at undergraduate and post-graduate level. I also run a private therapy and counselling practice for adults, couples, children, families and young people
I have a Masters degree and have trained as a child therapist and as a family therapist. Since the beginning of my career I have always worked with imaginative and respectful approaches that invite possibility and hope. For the last 7 years I have been supervised and trained by the internationally acclaimed therapist and inventor of Narrative Therapy, David Epston.
I draw on a number of other collaborative approaches in my work and have also trained as a Journey Practitioner. Journey work helps specifically to free people of ‘stories’ that have become stuck in the body. If you would like to know more about Journey work please let me know and I will be happy to talk with you about it.
Problems I help with
I have worked with families, children and young people and individuals from diverse backgrounds who have been experienced every imaginable problem. With children and young people I can help with behavioural difficulties of all kinds, as well as issues of identity and confidence. I am experienced in working with anorexia/bulimia, abuse issues, depression, anxiety and drug and alcohol issues.
I also work with individual adults and couples and supervise other practitioners.
Fees
My fees for a one hour session are $110 for business clients and couples , $100 for individuals and families, $70 for the unwaged and students.
